In the unlikely event that a member of Saturday House doesn't know what the One Laptop Per Child program is, please go here: http://laptop.org/
Last year during the Give One, Get One program, my extended family were Give 5, Get 5 donors. :) My wife and I bought two, and my sister-in-law's family bought three XO laptops: two for the adults and one for her stepdaughter. The adults still love their XOs, but the stepdaughter has moved back to Oregon and left hers behind, so they have it for sale. If you bought an XO from the Give One, Get One program now, you'd be paying $400 -- but of course you'd be donating a laptop to a kid in a developing country. If you want to do that, that's great -- I encourage it. (See the link above; G1G1 starts up again on 17 Nov.) If you just want a cheap, weatherproof Linux laptop that's great for reading ebooks, and you don't mind that the "give one" part of this G1G1 transaction is already taken care of, email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or call 206-201-1768 and we'll arrange a rendezvous.
