One Laptop Per Child now shipping!
I order not one but two One Laptop Per Child computers through the Give One Get One program.
Why two? Well, four actually. Because the XO computer has built-in mesh networking and what I call social computing tools. You need two to talk to each other. It's like Santa bringing you one walkie-talkie or even a pair if you're an only child in the middle of nowhere.
Rumor has it they're shipping today. I can't wait! And this is my birthday week too!
