Hey Stephen,
I bought an XO computer from OLPC. I am waiting for it to arrive. My hope is to explore it before I go to Africa with the Peace Corps. I'll let you know about it when I get it.
Love your blog. I am currently a tech librarian in CT and always find something useful and interesting when I read your blog.

Thanks, My OLPC won't arrive for a while. They're trying to get someone to deliver them to Canada!!! Amazingly we have all the major courier services here and there are no tariffs at the border on electronics. Weird. I really want to play with mine.
