The story Transcendence Express by Jetse de Vries appeared last week on Escape Pod, the science fiction podcast magazine.
It has relevance to OLPC ... 1. examining the effects of a laptop deployment, of sorts, 2. passing mention of $100 laptop in the introduction, 3. mention of OLPC and a quote from Nicholas Negroponte in the end-piece, It is rated R for some adult content, which is mild in my conservative opinion. The science fiction technology basis is interesting ... quantum computing, though potentially unsatisfying to some.
