        The $100/$200 laptop is about to become available
 for $400 on Nov 12, I believe. My understanding is that
 beginning on that date if you buy two laptops, you get to
 keep one and the other is donated to a child.

        After reading about the laptop at the link above, I
 have begun to think about getting in on this "deal" and
 wonder if others in this list have any such plans. If so,
 can you tell me why: re there any practical uses for us
 grown up children?


I intend to get one for two reasons: I am curious, and my wife does
research in children's use of technology.

I tried to get the OS emulator to work some time ago, but never succeeded
in compiling it.  Since it is based on Fedora, there is some hope that J
can be run on it.

Best wishes,

John
