The fun thing is that, while the one-click clone/upgrade feature was
primarily intented for easy deployment of Sage without internet
connection, i was surprised to get most feedback from "well-connectedd"
teachers using it in order to have a uniform configuration for windows
students.

An even more interesting use-case is about a teacher who maintain his
own custom live USB to include additional software related for his
lecture's needs (numerical analysis tools and specific development
environment).

Actually, i got some positive feedback from Burkina Faso, France, Italy,
Mexico, Spain, USA and China (though those two seem for individual use,
not classroom).

Ciao,
Thierry
