One Laptop, the Child

Posted on March 15th, 2008

I can’t say much makes me happier than this photo of the One Laptop Per Child laptop I donated in the hands of its owner. (I had done the “buy two, get one” program, and then donated the laptop they’d sent me. That’s the one you see here.)

XO laptop made beautiful

Thank you, Waveplace, for doing this, and for letting me see what you do.

(I am on the road and have not yet seen either of the two videos available (1 2)). [Tags: xo olpc waveplace haiti]

    That girl looks darling! The Waveplace website has many more photos of kids who got their laptop, but don’t ask me which child is the cutest, they’re all so photogenic.

    Nice, I did G1G1 * 3. Wish I had a pic of the kids I donated mine to, or even knew where they went :-)

    I did G1G1.My XO is shared by my 17 3rd grade students in Altadena, CA. I wish they could each get one. In one week they have taught me so much.
