OLPC 2005 - 2008 Rest In Pieces

The crappy PC because you are poor project is starting finally die off. Intel pulls out. Soon this whole idea of makong a piece of crap PC verses refurbishing old tech, that is only old because it's not on the bleeding edge no more, and then redistributing it.

You have to get rid of the old because you can't have it out there competing with the new "product".

Instead of crappy PCs and the promise of someday building a free wireless network so they can all connect to the internet. How about some native language illiteracy programs and some books. Educational ones.
