Forgot about this :sad: there was a similar device that plugged directly into a wall socket that was effectively a web server in a power adapter, had an Ethernet and USB ports too!

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Been talking about this at work today, is it not only available for schools? Also, the report says that it runs on linux, is it pre-installed or do you have to do all that yourself seeing as the device is all about learning to program?

My MD has been looking at getting them in, but can't order more than 1 at a time from the official retailers :huh:
