I'm confused why this is actually relevant to the Pi-Top, which has always had a strong educational focus. For someone who is in their teens and is eager to gain practical experience without dozens of hours of scrubbing YouTube and practicing programming basics, these kids are a solid idea. Further, I think the notion of pushing hard to differentiate itself from transitional machine form factors and work on a rugged"standard compute unit" is a very interesting experiment. I'm not sure it's for me. But I've built a little Pi case with a charge controllers, a battery, and a screen just like this and I liked the result. This is certainly nicer than what I cobbled together and the idea of making a standard compute form factor for projects is really good.
