No URL provided, so I can't evaluate you input fully. XO just started production. XO is happening, especially when compared to the alternatives.

Sun, 30 Dec 2007 09:40:53 +0000 http://www.saigonnezumi.com/?p=526#comment-29985 Thanks for the advice on google, 'cause you know, there's no way in hell I can understand what you wrote. What would life be without the big G? Did you catch the latest WSJ piece on OLPC? Their own board members are fretting about not getting the #s promised by Negroponte, because a few hundred thousand units is not gonna keep the board member's Taiwan production facilities humming. OLPC getting sales in South America is not wholly surprising. A certain John Negroponte (related, natch - the brother actually) sorta, kinda helped out some of those governments in the not too distant past. What's a few hundred thousand laptops between friends?

I'm sure you used a touchpad 100% of the time. Ops. OLPC is a rapidly maturing product. Check out the latest here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22389026/. The laptops are priced at $188 each. Peru is buying 275,000 units, and Uruguay is getting another 100,000! That can't be all that bad. Thanks for the Argumentum Ad Hominems D, and google that term if you have.

I mean, the eee PC will be more popular than the ClassmatePC and OLPC also. The future will be mobile technology, I think. @D, definitely wishful thinking.
