$100 laptop project eyes launch
"The first batch of computers built for the One Laptop Per Child project could reach users by July this year.

I think that this is a creative way to get children interested in computers. The computer looks fun and it looks like it will sell alot.
I think this is a very good idea, but sadly. I don't think it will work out as well as the makers had assumed.
I think that this is a great idea but i agree with Christian that it most likely wont work. 100 dollars is still a lot of money for most people.
I think these laptops are a great idea. Technology is becoming more useful everyday and I'm glad that less fortunate children will have a better chance of being able to take advantage of that. The computers look awesome too. I think if I were a kid I would love to have one.
I think that this is a very good idea. The labtop looks good and hopefully it'll work out great.
I think that this is a great idea, but I'm not too sure that people will have the money to spend on the computers.
This is a great invention for kids and evolving countries that don't have thousands of dollars to spend on a computer, however I think they will spend the little money that they do have elsewhere.
This is an interesting concept. These computers have the potential to make a big differnce in the world.
