From David Pogue's column in Thursday's New York Times: a detailed
review of the so-called $100 computer, from the "One Laptop Per
Child" project.
He liked it. A lot. He was especially impressed by some of the
advanced features not found in "ordinary" laptops. About the only
negative things he said about it was that the software is still being
tinkered with, and the keyboard is a little small for touch-typing by
an adult.
All of the New York Times is available online, for free, so if you're
thinking of ordering one or giving money to the project, you can
check it out online.
