The One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project was intended to provide children too poor to buy PCs (and pretty much anything beyond food and shelter) with a user-friendly, virtually-indestructible computing device. Its primary market is the Third World, and I’m glad to report that they’re making inroads on that front by making a deal with the city of Birmingham, Alabama. It’s heart-warming to see that people whose lives are blighted by having to live in Alabama are finally getting some good news!
These guys really are reaching the poorest of the poor…
