Why a $25 PC? Because itâs the price of a textbook

,----[ Quote ]
| There is growing interest surrounding the Raspberry Pi Foundation and their 
| promise of a PC that will cost just $25. Weâve seen how the OLPC has struggled 
| to deliver a $100 laptop for developing countries, and yet Raspberry Pi is 
| confident in delivering the $25 PC by November this year.
| 
| Although we know a bit about the PC, thereâs still a lot of information 
| missing, but further details are starting to appear as Raspberry Pi develops 
| the machine further and talks to more people about it. Eben Upton, director of 
| the foundation, recently gave a talk at Bletchley Park regarding Educating 
| Programmers, which focused on the thinking behind the $25 PC. You can watch it 
| below.
