One Laptop Per Child kicks off PyCON 2007

| Krstic himself mentioned only a little bit about the impact of 100
| million children being exposed to laptop computers and the internet,
| let alone a view source key inviting them to learn one of the most
| powerful free software oriented programming languages in one of the
| most powerful free software operating systems.

OLPC as a music player

,----[ Quote ]
| The client I chose is Sonata. I?ve used a lot of music players,
| including xmms, rhythmbox, amarok, banshee, and muine, but the
| combination of Sonata+mpd is the best way to enjoy music on
| Linux. It's really, really good, and it?s worth the slight
| headache of setting up mpd.conf to get it working on your machine.
| 
| Sonata is also written in Python and only took maybe 20
| lines of alteration to sugar-ize it. The author, Scott
| Horowitz, was even nice enough to incorporate my alterations
| into the main codebase, meaning that my bundle isn't a fork
| of his project.
