I wouldn't dismiss the Raspberry Pi 3 or similar single board computer


Around the time RPi hit the million unit mark I floated the idea of a Sugar-branded enclosure for it, distributed through the RPi partner network.

The problem at the time was that the Sugar experience on RPi was pretty terrible. I suspect it is pretty decent on the newer models. Do we know?

I think that the issue was mainly it was hard to install Sugar on the 1st generation rpis. The 1st gen was a special snowflake and it didn't run normal distros that could normally intall sugar.

I think the situation has changed?  Can't the rpi3 run mainline kernel?

There are actually a few funny tablets that run mainline kernel, like the 2013 nexus 7. (not the 2012 nexus7, that's a tegra chip) Maybe those are of interest to us.

Thanks,
Sam
