Hmm. Very similar to this:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alexklein/kano-a-computer-anyone-can-make

Though, the latter case its a fully working PC which kids can "put 
together" and learn how to program.

Uh, no - not really. That's a Raspberry Pi with a tiny keyboard and 
external speaker.

The Tango is a full-fledged x86-compatible PC (except that you need a 
docking station to connect any external stuff to it).

Interesting idea with the heat sink design, what would be better is to 
have a screen and a "low power" mode so you could use it as a smartphone 
without any docking station.

Why not an input on your mobile phone so you can use it as the display?

We already have a heap of remote controles, why add a heap of hand held 
displays to that?

Although thinking about it a bit more, why exactly would you want to 
take the same physical PC "core" around with you? With cloud-based 
services and faster internet speeds nowadays is there really a big need 
for this?
