As Craige mentioned, I am quite familiar with his machines. They make 
wonderful showcase items and have been thoroughly child-tested. I suggest 
that we have at least one of these, perhaps running Edubuntu (as we had at 
the Sydney Education Expo last year).

We should also have at the very least one laptop, to show off Ubuntu's laptop 
support. We should also have a box to display 3D graphics and games, which 
can be either a desktop or a laptop.

Either way, I'll have my laptop with me for use if required.
