Here is a link to an article about how MIT plans to provide $100
durable laptops to the children
of the world. This is done through a non-profit program called One
Laptop Per Child. Local governments would purchase and distribute the
laptops.
The laptops run on Linux and are made of weatherproof rubber. Since not
every child may always have power available, the laptop includes a manual crank
to recharge the battery. See pictures of the
proposed laptops.
A very intriguing concept. Now, if someone can set up Internet access,
we will have a whole new group of people publishing web sites and joining our
group!
