'''What exactly is on the Stick?''': The Sugar Learning Platform and Sugar Activities for children over Fedora GNU/Linux. Taking advantage of [[wikipedia:Live USB|Live USB]] technology, it's possible to store everything you need to run Sugar on a single, [[wikipedia:USB flash drive|USB flash memory stick]]. Compressed file systems are used to save space, and persistent overlay files are used to save changes to the system and the learner's work. See our [[Sugar on a Stick/Resources| '''resources page''']] to learn about different component configurations we are designing to offer the option to use [[wikipedia:Virtual machine|virtual machines]] on existing computers to host Sugar from a portable Stick and save the [[Human Interface Guidelines/The Laptop Experience/The Journal|Sugar Journal]] (the learner's work) and personal settings on the Stick for use at another workstation - for example, a computer in the home. | '''What exactly is on the Stick?''': The Sugar Learning Platform and Sugar Activities for children over Fedora GNU/Linux.
