This is the million dollar idea of Nicholas Negroponte, as only sales support them in these developed world. So now, children will be stashed with these loptops whether they need it or not, and private partners who share the dream of enriching themselves will force parents to shell out the money. We have seen such instances with many private schools. For these people, $100 is nothing, but for the poor farmers who live with a $1.0 a day or less, it is end of education for their children and end of future dreams. We will be benefitted with billions of children who know nothing but computer games and key/button pushing modernity and technology in their hands, which makes them feel proud, and those parents who think their children are ever smarter. Human evolution and mind seem to think that ever increasing accumulation of toys and Gadgets is the way to the future.
