Thanks everyone for the feedback and typos. If anyone does get good data on deployments I suggest checking out Manyeyes to make the map. Thanks! On Thu, Apr 8, 2010 at 2:18 PM, Yamandu Ploskonka yamap...@gmail.comwrote: Bolivia - 100 machines purchased by the SOBOCE foundation, maybe 20

Nice find. I decided to use a tag cloud. That gets around the nonstandard place names and it gives a relative idea without listing numbers that we know are out of date. http://manyeyes.alphaworks.ibm.com/manyeyes/visualizations/word-cloud-of-olpc-xo-deployments Thanks On Thu, Apr 8, 2010 at
