"Familia Toledo do not manufactures G11 computers for direct sale to the public, they sell their prototypes to governments or original equipment manufactures." That's the One Laptop Per Child business model. Dead end.

You can get laptops on Alibaba starting at $80. If they just loaded their software onto them, something they could probably get the OEM to do for them, they'd be there. Instead of trying to cable stuff together with ribbon cables.

For $100, you can get a Windows 10 capable (but not including Windows 10) machine, with reasonable memory, disk, and WiFi.
