My dear friend and companion Steve Jobs says kids who got the One Laptop Per Child laptop were disappointed. He’s only telling half the story.
Child without U2 music on his laptop:
Child with U2 music pre-loaded on her laptop:
Steve’s just jealous that he’s not the only computer maker I’m doing deals with to bring music to the world.
Sorry Steve. I can’t be fully committed to you until you stop getting in bed with Google who just dissed our mutual buddy Michael Moore.

I don’t think this is funny… I’m from Uruguay, where this proyect is taking place. Those photos where taken from… some useless web page I think, and I’m really offended because I think you don’t even know what is this all about, and you use it like that, you have no respet for our country.
Do you know that this is an important proyect?? This started as a program that wanted to give a simple computer to school kids so all children could have equally access to this comunication media.
It’s easy: this is a great way to introduce them in this technology, but the main concept is that all kids must have the same opportunity.
I don’t know if I express myself ok, but that I don’t really care, I hope you be ashamed.
If you really want to know what is this about:

If you speak spanish, pueden leer esto que es de la nota del espectador sobre el plan…
“JUAN GROMPONE:
Los dos puntos son muy importantes. Primero, es una revolución porque que el niño tenga una computadora para su uso personal y de su propiedad personal es una idea nueva. Hasta ahora no se ha experimentado en el mundo, es una idea absolutamente nueva que plantea un enfoque distinto. Hasta ahora se creaban aulas de informática en las que se hacía una determinada actividad a determinadas horas con maestros especiales. Ahora el niño puede seguir en su casa, la familia participa, el maestro tiene la misma máquina, planean actividades juntos y la usan en el momento en que se crea conveniente. Ese es el cambio radical y nuevo, de modo que no es fácil comparar experiencias pasadas, que en general no han sido exitosas, con esta nueva experiencia.
Y revolucionario porque, en la medida en que apostemos al Uruguay tecnológico (vuelvo a mi caballo favorito), el hecho de que haya una cantidad niños que a lo largo de toda su formación se familiarizaron con los elementos electrónicos, con su manejo en el uso cotidiano, se va a producir una generación nueva adaptada a la nueva sociedad y a los nuevos estilos de producción y de fabricación.”…

Hey! My friend was telling me about these laptops! I looked at them on ebay though, and they don’t really look like they’re worth $200.
