XO-1 laptops cheap computers for children

Philippe Rieffel of the Geospatial Learning @ Primary School project shows a XO-1_Monty laptop.

I took the picture at the State Of The Map conference in Girona, in Spain in July.

The project Geospatial Learning @ Primary School provides a few children with laptop to learn geographical skills, and to contribute to the project Open Street Map in the process.

The OPLC (A XO laptop for every child) project is alive and well. For instance Rwanda will deploy further 100,000 XO laptops until December 2010.
