| Some of the anti-OLPC notes that have appeared since Intel was kicked out of
| the project have been well-reasoned (read the Economist's near-obituary and
| Nikolaj Nyholm on Radar) -- but much of the anti-OLPC opining has
| deteriorated to personal attack on OLPC head Nicholas Negroponte. At least
| one of those sources of attack has turned out to be run by an Intel employee.
| There are plenty of forces that want OLPC to fail commercially.
