| A non-profit group that designs low-cost computers for poor children hopes to 
| start selling multimedia laptops to consumers by Christmas, a foundation 
| executive said on Monday.  
| 
| The One Laptop Per Child Foundation's rugged XO laptop could initially sell 
| for just $350, or twice its production cost, although the group is also 
| considering a $525 price tag, said OLPC chief technology officer Mary Lou 
| Jepsen.
