I am surprised to read: "As a result, it is expected that the main effect of the OLPC project -- if it succeeds -- will be to turn millions of children into Microsoft dependents."
Some of your other criticisms of OLPC are fair, but this is pure speculation. Even though there is a Windows XP port to the XO laptop, to my knowledge, OLPC has not shipped any Windows or dual-boot XOs to customers. (Or was there a small trial that fizzled?) On the other hand, OLPC has put free software into more children's hands than any other project so far. You ought to give them credit for that, at least. Your interpretation of events seems excessively pessimistic. -- American?
