Yes, for me XP on the XO is the end of OLPC, no matter who is the CEO.' Ministries of Education will be tempted to lock down XO's in computer labs and revert the whole one laptop per child idea back to one to many, effectively negating the goal of this grand dream. They will be taught 'ICT skills', a phrase Negroponte himself railed against. But once you put on XP, no matter how much it may be customized to leverage the XO hardware, children will not be taught to 'learn learning' as Negroponte promised. With the Sugar User Interface, OLPC can claim to have a Constructionist learning methodology, it can claim to be promoting exploration and learning, it can even hope to activate the view source key. With a Microsoft operating system, an XO becomes a '$200 laptop', a cheap Toshiba replacement, not an educational learning tool for children. I say that XP on the XO is the end of One Laptop Per Child as an educational project. 'For me, that paragraph represents the end of a dream. Good catch! OLPC lost a lot of developer mindshare IMHO when they started cosying up to Microsoft and changing their hardware to run Windows. The Pi sold millions, these manufacturers maybe do a run of 10,000 then move on to something new, never again to bother with the design because they needed to use up some spare parts. Problem is, they fizzled not because they weren't good, but they were one-shot products. Just think that in the time the Pi has been around and outclassed, there are probably dozens of 'rPi killers' boards that were produced with faster processors, better hardware, and not a lot more dollars ($5-15). It's big, it's documented and everyone got their stuff working so you can Google or ask for help. One of the biggest advantages the Pi has over everyone else is the community. Forget about a community - these guys just produce hardware, get something running and ship it. Third, documentation? If you're lucky, it's in Chinese. Second, your board is obsolete and no matter how you beg, they will not make more, so you have to move your project to a new board and start over.

First, you can order the board today, but tomorrow no, the board is completely different and won't work with your software today. This new model steps up a little bit but it's still a few paces behind where it could be for the same $35. Yeah yeah, everyone gets it, the Pi is not meant to be a work horse and no one ever claimed otherwise, but what good is it if it's a total pain in the arse to use because of way too little power and memory to offer up a decent user experience? There's just no rationalizing away the fact that they have been grossly underpowered regardless of context. Thank you.You can find chinese SoC boards with much more performance and RAM for as little as $5-10 more. Their website says they have been around since 2005, but I have never heard of them before.Ĭan anyone provide feedback on this product specifically, or suggest alternative solutions to the problem I presented? All feedback welcome.

It supports Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android - but beyond that I could find nothing in r/networking nor in r/sysadmin. I stumbled upon this NeoRouter software, which appears to be an advanced version of Hamachi. Trained staff to support the VPN hardware in each office However, that would require resources greater than I have at this time.

My preference is to drop compatible hardware at each location and create a hub and spoke VPN to our data center. However, other problems and needs have outgrown Hamachi and it's time for IT to step in and deploy a reliable VPN solution across the organization. This was an ad-hoc solution created to satisfy a small problem.

The current implementation is a collection of PCs running Hamachi managed by the development team. I want to on-board 50+ small offices across the country to our corporate network.
