What an idiot that guy is. It doesn't need a hard disk. The linux software is stored on the server computer and each laptop runs off the network with each child having their own usb stick to boot from, with their configuration and files store on the stick. Or, if there was no network, a live linux cd and usb stick is all that's needed. It's a great idea - I lost count of how many times my son lost his work at school through viruses introduced by the kids on their XP network.
