the OLPC laptop uses a modified Red Hat system with a Sugar UI. However, looking at the various video shots, screenshots and what not of the demo OLPC, I dont think it will be condusive enough for a child to use and learn. The Sugar UI is pretty much designed to be used by 2-3 year olds and not much for ages beyond that.
I would rather let my baby use Edubuntu than use the OLPC. On 4/30/07, Yolynne Medina <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
