| Mind you, the mission of OLPC for its “$100 Laptop” is to “stimulate local
| grassroots initiatives designed to enhance and sustain over time the
| effectiveness of laptops as learning tools for children living in
| lesser-developed countries. The “$100 Laptop,” we are told “can leapfrog
| decades of development—immediately transforming the content and quality
| of ... children's learning.”
