I've received a donation of a 11.6" Pinebook Linux Laptop from the PINE64 Community.
This sub-$100 laptop performs nicely for the price. It can be charged over USB. The laptop came with Ubuntu 18.04 and KDE Neon. A very functional desktop environment. Sugar 0.117 can be used. The Sugar packages for OLPC OS on Ubuntu 20.04 were rebuilt on the Pinebook and then installed. Some performance timings; 1. boot time to login prompt, 30 seconds, 2. login to Sugar, 13 seconds, 3. wake from sleep to Sugar, 2 seconds, 4. activity start, 5 seconds.
