Quote | Gladly this wasn't targeted to "poor" countries, just the rich but cheap -.- When the kids got their hands on the OLPC in there, guess what was the first they used them for? Yes. . So much need for computers... | Maybe that was a joke, but it sounded terrible.
Lowered specs and higher prices seems to be pretty much routine when developing new hardware concepts. A decade from now very few will remember the olpc or eee in their current state, when portable pcs will be as cheap and widespread as portable music players are today (not talking about necessarily ipod here, but just music players in general...cd and radio included).
