I’ve spoken about the One Laptop Per Child project before. It is a wonderful initiative founded by MIT’s Nicholas Negroponte. The goal is to promote world education by constructing affordable laptop PCs, best known as the $100 dollar laptops, and branded as the “XO laptops”, and delivering them to children in developing countries.
Earlier this year, on another post, I discussed OLPC’s plans to make their laptops available to the public for purchase, should each buyer agree to also donate one laptop. It seems this plan is becoming a reality.
Head over at the XO laptop giving website to find out more about it. Official launch date for the give one - take one project is November 12th.
