@nicolasegosum It doesn’t, it uses a Rockchip RK3288-C + 4 x Cortex A17 + Mali T764 ARM System on a Chip. I don’t know why Amazon thinks it has an Apple A4.
An interesting idea. It's $85, plus the cost of a bluetooth keyboard and mouse (a cheap combo can be found for $20, but that might not be ideal), and the cost of the monitor, which they could be targeting old ones lying around, but most old monitors lying around don't support hdmi. So you're looking at at least $100 for a monitor (in the US at least) but probably closer to $200. Even at $100, you're up to $205 at the cheapest. You migth be able to use an HDMI to DVI or VGA converter. For that you get a computer with only one USB port and no other ports. It has 16GB of storage and 2GB of RAM, and still needs a power brick. Is that really a bargain? At first I thought maybe something for my daughter to get her started on a computer, but I think a Kano kit based on the Raspberry Pi 2 would probably be better suited to kids, with its own keyboard/touchpad combo, 4 USB ports, and software designed to help teach kids about programming. I'm not sure who this product is targeted to really.
@trauring Who doesn't have a monitor or TV lying around, though? For me, it's effectively $85 (plus a keyboard and mouse, so maybe $100-$110 altogether).

If a small business wanted to run a slideshow feed or something similar at the front desk or in a waiting area, Chromebit is probably the cheapest way to do it.
