One Laptop Per Child

i just received my OLPC from U.S.


It is really wonderful for a laptop with the cost price of slightly over US$100. It is so small and cute. The pictures taken from another source but it is the same. HEEHEE!!!

The OLPC is working on Linus which i am unfamiliar. Hmm... need some getting used to and have not figure out complately how it works. But according to specification, it has wifi.

For more information check out the OLPC website. By the way, the OLPC version will be out in November 2009 in two months time. Hmm......tempting but the price is US$399. *FAINT*

This looks interesting. Have read about it but didn't know you can actually order it from the US.

How does it compare vs the UMPC (Asus EEE that runs on Linux)?

i got it on ebay US.

Compare to UMPC, it is so much more fun. it is really nice externally.

the linux is a whole new ball game. it is re-learning everything about computing. I find it close to MAC. No wonder people still stick to window (familiar, i guess)

the ASUS EEE processors are faster with the new Asus EEE 1000H out now. But hey, this is for the disadvantage children so it is ok.
