Leslie Walker - On a Laptop Mission for Kids - washingtonpost.com: "On a Laptop Mission for Kids A Buy One, Give One Campaign Seeks to Send Tech Abroad By Leslie Walker Special to The Washington Post Sunday, November 18, 2007; Page F06
For two weeks this month, Americans are being invited to join a global marathon -- the uphill effort to take 21st-century computing to poor children around the world.
The invitation comes from One Laptop Per Child, a nonprofit group founded in 2005 by academics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Media Lab. The MIT gang is trying to jump-start unexpectedly slow laptop computer sales abroad by appealing to charitable impulses at home."
