Is anybody in a school that has or is planning to purchase the XO laptop for their
students?
This is the $200. laptop that was featured on 60 minutes recently.
It was a laptop developed for children in developing countries but is also being
used in certain high poverty areas in the states.
Anybody's school planning on buying them?
If you are curious, this is their website: http://laptop.org
