It's not really designed for get-up-and-go, though, is it. The lack of anything so bourgeois as USB or a/v output makes that clear.

On the other hand, the article makes a point of the RPi's lack of onboard storage. Because MicroSD cards are so much less convenient than entire breakout boards for typing things in and seeing the result.

It's a Linux Foundation "article" about a Linux Foundation member's latest product. How practical it is is irrelevant. This is just what happens instead of trade paperbacks now.
