I really want a Pi-top. It's a really neat idea, it's a laptop that would absolutely stand out from the rest (<i>green</i>!!!), and it seems like it'd be easy to upgrade down the line.

It's a damn shame it costs so much. It's more expensive than my Chromebook, and has a good bit less power. The storage would be slower, the CPU would be weaker (cores aren't everything), the video would be slower. The Chromebook has USB 3.0, and through a small SD card adapter I've given it 64GB of storage to work in, which is especially nice in a chroot.

There's something unique about the Pi-top and it's fantastic for both education and enthusiast purposes, but I just can't justify the price of it with the way things are right now, sadly.

Plus, has anyone used a Pi 3 with it? I run my main 3 with a fan to keep it really cool, and I don't think there'd be enough room for this in the Pi-top. I'm sure someone's probably tried something with it, though...
