Grane will not provide a "better user experience" compared to
Sugar-on-a-stick as you said,
is a "different experience", i'm not discussing which is better because that
will be decided by the real
need of the kid for a specific moment.

Grane goals are fast switching between sessions, easy backup, you can have
your own laptop, save your data with
one click and resume your session easily in another sugar computer, no
reboots are needed, no have to deal with hardware
issues, because it runs on top of Sugar, sugar-on-a-stick is different and
runs on top of the direct hardware as it needs to launch the OS.

Just easy backup, transport and resume or hard copy the session to another
sugar env.
