Sugar Learning Platform and GNOME Desktop Now Available on One Laptop per Child XO-1.5
,----[ Quote ]
| One Laptop Per Child announced an update to
| the XO-1.5 which enables both Sugar Labs'
| Sugar Learning Platform and the GNOME free
| desktop. The Sugar Learning Platform has been
| featured on OLPC laptops since the original
| XO-1. The recent update introduces a more
| sophisticated interface for older students.
| Toggling between the two environments can be
| done with a single-click.

,----[ Quote ]
| We all know OLPC as an amazing educational

Chrome OS: Why so much confusion?
,----[ Quote ]
| What Chrome OS is not:
|
| * It was never intended to be a
| replacement for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS
| X, or any of the Linux/UNIX -based
| distributions.
| * It is not going to cater to everybodyâs
| style in computing.
| * It will not necessarily bring everything
| that you are looking for in an OS (see
| previous statement).

One Laptop Per Child Revamps Tablet Plans
,----[ Quote ]
| The One Laptop Per Child foundation's aim to
| create the world's most innovative tablet
| computer for the developing world just took
| a giant leap toward reality. But as is often
| the case, reality may not be quite as
| exciting as imagination.
|
| On Thursday the foundation announced a
| partnership with chip maker Marvell to
| collaborate on a sleek and cheap touch-
| screen tablet for developing-world school
| children, a device it now plans to launch at
| the Consumer Electronics Show in January
| 2011 for less than $100. One Laptop Per
| Child (OLPC) says that's close to two years
| ahead of its scheduled release for the so-
| called XO-3, the long-awaited upgrade to the
| non-profit's XO, the so-called "hundred-
| dollar laptop" launched in 2007.
