One Laptop Per Child
John at work got his hands on a laptop from the the One Laptop Per Child program. I must first the thing is well put together but its tiny I mean really tiny and not meant for people with giant chip hands. As its designed for children in mind to took the obligatory 15mins to work out how to get the thing up and running and of course we couldn’t find any instructions on how everything works. However it once we where up and running I really did like the wi-fi map and browsing and net was no problem. I suppose the laptop all comes into play once a network of them is up and running. It did have some rather cool apps in there though some sort of drum app which was fun to play around it and also a python editor for kids! I suppose get them while they are young.
Sorry about the quality of the pics I took them with my phone
