I'm a mentor for a Lego robotics team and have been for years - this year's season will mark my eighth year of Lego Robotics. I love to help the kids learn and I even try to teach them (to some extent) how to code.
This looks great, and I'd much rather get four of these for my team than a new laptop for myself. However, it's crucial to have Mindstorms software, which only runs in a VM [0]. Can you test if it's at all possible (speed-wise) to run the NXT-G software in a VM? I don't care if it's a bit sluggish or if it takes five minutes to start as long as it's usable.
If so, this would be absolutely revolutionary. So many teams don't have enough computers or have to share one computer.
If you don't have the software or an NXT, I'd love to buy one from you guys, test it out, and evangelize it to everyone I meet. My kids would go crazy for another computer.
