    computers have never been cheaper

    while that might be true for the e-waste teirs of pcs, that idea is laughable for anything actually usable. just take a look at nvidia’s pricing, and I don’t mean msrp I mean the actual price you actually pay at checkout.

      Are we seriously going to get elitist about what PC kids are using to learn the basics?

      My $120 beelink runs my server on elementary OS and can encode/stream 3x 4K streams without any issue. It’s plenty capable for teaching kids how to use computers.
