Hi... When you all figure out the best way to get a microscope running on the XO and the best one to get for the best possible price, be sure to let me know. I want to get one to have in the OLPC booth at SCaLE 9X. Caryl P.S. Cherry... are you and your family still planning to come to CA for Disneyland and SCaLE?

But we were discussing this on our Squeakland meeting today and wondering if you've tried this on the XO 1.0 as well and if you've tried other brands? The Digimicro is hovering around $37-$45 at Amazon (without shipping and tax). Where have you found them for $30? Thank you for your help! --Cherry On Thu, Nov 18, 2010 at 8:14 PM, Mike Lee <curious...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi all, I ordered this Digimicro 1.3mp USB microscope and it arrived from China today.
