: (Note that Sugar Labs does not sell hardware, software, or services.) You will need at minimum a 1-GB stick for each student.  If updates or large activities will be installed, however, a 4-GB or 8-GB stick is recommended.  (See [http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Category:Live_USB#Cautions_with_using_Live_USB.27s Cautions with using Live USB].)  Check your local computer store for prices. Right now, it's about $8 USD for a 1-GB stick. To deploy on a large scale, you will also need either very dedicated volunteers or a bulk copy device.  We are using one from NeXcopy that retails for about $1200.  You should also budget for some USB stick loss.
