Re: OLPC on Slashdot again
Another point which probably should be clarified is the second quarter (April-June 2011) ship date the articles are quoting. The way things are written this seems to imply that mass production of XO-1.75's will start by this time, with a supported tested operating system also available.

OLPC on Slashdot again
Congrats guys! Kudos on the work on switching to ARM. Comments are a little more sane and less FUD-y now on Slashdot: http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=11/01/08/0229206 This would be a good time for people here to hop on and comment on the Slashdot thread to help educate/evangelize to the geek world more on what OLPC's been doing (and stop FUD from resurfacing again). FUD has really generated a lot of badwill for OLPC, this'd be a good opportunity to help rectify that.
