You're still showing your utter ignorance, aren't you? The OLPC is
designed to be used in places without a reliable supply of electricity,
and where ruggedness is desirable. You clearly have no idea how popular
the wind-up radio is in places such as there, and this laptop works on
similar principles. No hard drive to be damaged, a screen which can be
used in bright light, several ways to power it (crank, pull-string, etc),
an OS created for children to experiment with.
What a foul creature you are to sneer at such a thing.
