Similar computers were given away to almost every venezuelan kid in school during the venezuelan oil bonanza around 2009-2012 [1], a big number were also given during 2013-2014 period. Since 2013, Venezuela entered into a huge economical crysis. Resulting in people not being able to afford to buy a pc or laptop so the "Canaima" / "Canaimita" laptops where their only alternative to own a computer. Nowdays, all those kids (now grown) are still using their laptops, most of them already at University level, Imagine people at universities using 2012 notebooks with 10inches screens. They are perfectly working and you can easily fix them as there is so many parts on mercadolibre [2] As a side note, all the laptops were given away with a linux version mantained by the govt [3] so kids were somehow forced to learn basic linux, wich is kinda cool, eventually most got to install windows on the laptops by themselves, take note that it was of course pirated windows/office, so the kids at least learnt how to properly set up their laptops. The laptops pretty much became part of venezuelan young generation culture, getting to a point that facebook groups started appearing of people sharing games supported by the laptop [4] some other groups of people modding the laptops and so on. In fact, one of the biggest youtubers (LowSpecGamer) [5] started his crusade of -low specs gaming- using one of these laptops.
