Hmm, sounds like you are saying that abstract goal of unlimited software freedom is a higher goal than providing access to modern technology to disadvantaged children in 3rd-world countries. I don't wish to argue that point, but it is certainly a point that could be debated. Why *would* the OLPC people wish to get their dicks caught in the struggle between the free-and-open software community and the greedheads? -- Jack J.
