This is an incredibly compact package that functions as a working laptop, and underneath the removable Bluetooth keyboard are 22+ types of sensors and modules that can be used in combination with the software to learning about programming, DIY electronics, gaming, face and voice recognition, AI, RFID, etc.
With a Raspberry Pi 4 and up to 8GB of RAM, you can do quite a bit with this device. It's the ideal type of gift for a young child who may be into electronics, programming, etc. Back in my day, I was really excited to get an electronic kit, and back then there were no computers to go with it.

I like history, and I like computers, so I enjoy hearing stories about computing before computers were an everyday household appliance, much less a personal accessory. One tale I hear often is about how the computers of long ago (in computer years, anyway) were pleasantly basic. They were so basic, in fact, that it was relatively trivial for a curious user to figure out how to program one.
