“The United Nations has thrown its weight behind a project to place a $100, hand-cranked laptop computer in the hands of millions of schoolchildren around the globe.”

So isn’t it great that you can now challenge them to a game of Counter-Strike on your 10Ghz, 6GB RAM, 512mb 3D Graphics card? Well maybe not, but at least they’ll be able to have some of the luxuries we take so much for granted. Well done UN.
