OLPC XO-1
19 Aug 2008 by David Goligorsky
A friend of mine has a OLPC XO-1, so I finally had a chance to give the much-talked-about piece of equipment a test run. Challenging user interface and miserable keyboard layout… on the bright side, it is rugged, the mechanical aspects of the case and swiveling screen are great, and the $100 price point it fantastic. For its intended purpose of spreading the availability of information and education to children of developing countries, it’s a great start!

Great stuff, man. Always nice to see the work of a peer. You should add buttons to the bottom of your posts to digg, stumble, etc your content.-Tom
