If you have not heard of this already, you do now! A brain child of Nicholas Negroponte, the program plans to donate a laptop to every child who needs it. Some versions of these laptops have in-built hand-driven mechanical generators of electricity!! These low-cost laptops have amazing design features which can create envy in any product designer. They are network enabled and an entire village can be potentially made digitally alive through sponsored satellite-driven infrastructure.
There are pros and cons and there are social challenges in the process. But, the fact is that all kids have the propensity to imagine the impossible. Every kid has fearless dreams and ambitions. Giving them a laptop may be the smallest help you can offer to help them be where they belong!
