agreed, though in these "times of austerity" I do struggle a bit with
the idea of an ICT suite of RM P4s or whatever stood idle while they
learn Python on single board computers with the inevitable shiny new
HDMI compatible monitors.

Obviously the Raspberry-PI has some "hardware" type activity options,
but for teaching coding it seems mainly to be a game changer or trojan
horse to shake up the establishment when you would never get them dual
booting the same OS as the R-pi will run on existing kit.
