Hey thanks for the pointer Gerry, I'll be interested in others' opinions of that analysis.
Mine is somewhat different in that I think real tangible evidence of a positive future is a threat to moneyed interests pushing a different agenda, otherwise we'd have seen XOs on Tony the Tiger cereal boxes by now, whereas they're only just getting around to sharing free memory stix: http://www.flickr.com/photos/17157...@n00/3535504824/ http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=17157315%40N00&q=grunch&m=text (more cereal box pix) Not that you'd get an actual XO in the box (too heavy), but it's a really fascinating story that could've been shared on a voluntary basis by companies interested in boosting the OLPC agenda e.g. Kellogg's and like that. Lots more in my blogs, where the XO is faithfully marketed (plus I have two, one for the roadshow, one on loan to a young child on a rotating basis -- like a library): http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=XO&w=17157315%40N00 Kirby On Wed, May 20, 2009 at 7:56 AM, gerry_lowry (alliston ontario canada) <gerry.lo...@abilitybusinesscomputerservices.com> wrote: > http://www.acm.org/ > > > > Regards, > Gerry > _______________________________________________ > Edu-sig mailing list > Edu-sig@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig > _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
