One Laptop per Child

OLPC
The MIT Media Lab has launched a new research initiative to develop a $100 laptop—a technology that could revolutionize how we educate the world's children. To achieve this goal, a new, non-profit association, One Laptop per Child (OLPC), has been created.

The Green Machine prototype, styled by Design Continuum, was unveiled at WSIS, Tunisia by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan and Nicholas Negroponte.

We are also zeroing in on the hardware specification for the first generation machine.

Developing software for this machine is very straight forward, though there are development issues you should be aware of.

We are beginning a OLPC software task list.
