This story makes me happy. From the BBC: A child’s view of the $100 laptop.

In late November I returned from Nigeria with a sample of the XO laptop.

The computer, made by the One Laptop per Child charity, is a robust little machine designed to entertain and educate children while allowing them to learn by themselves.

"Looks fun," was his only comment when I handed over the small, green and white laptop, explaining that he was the only child in Britain to have one. [continue]

I ordered one of the XO laptops a while ago; hope mine gets here soon.
