Well we’ve got two choices here, we can keep them uneducated but semi-well fed, living in squalor and dependant on people whom many of which couldn’t really care less about the longterm well being of the people they claim to want to help.
OR as we feed them we can at least make some effort to inspire them to use their brains and find their own ways of providing for themselves, leading to the day when they won’t need any help. This project is just one step towards that, KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.
Agreed!!
i have that laptop but i hate it cause you can only connect to internet via wireless you cant see video on the stupid laptop either
Hello I live in Nigeria and I happen to have a free XO laptop thanks to the OLPC project. First of all I would like to thank everybody who participates in this wonderful project, that allows us children, living here in the 3rd World to gain access to the Internet and learn more about the world itself. Thank you for creating this project and God bless you. I hope that soon every child living in poor countries such as Nigeria will have the opportunity to use this great educational tool. Thank you!
wtf no u dont ur channel country says poland
Hello I live in Nigeria and I am so glad you gave me computer to hack into peoples computers and spamscam so many people in so many other countries..please send money
lol
The Laptop is not for Hacking other people’s computers. Please don’t use this laptop for that purpose, if you really do that you are misusing a laptop designed for kids
Listen kid you just need to realize that hey no one in needy countries cares what it looks like for goodness sakes! If these were so bad then why don’t you try making a laptop similar to this.
lol, I REALLY hope they keep tabs on these things.
its good for google images low qulity mp3 and pacman : ]
a book can cost 100
this laptop cost 100 but have unlimited information in it via internet ,it is a life saver for the poor and thrist for kwodlege
wear is the mose???????????????????????
I don’t understand why people always have those food donations and such for poor countries, why can’t they get their own food like all the other countries in the world?
cuz we’re mining their place is one reason and importing food from them. screws their soil.
but ultimately because they aren’t developed and theres too many people so not enough food to go around
this is a very good idea and i really hope to hear more about it in the future. i can’t imagine it being very powerful but then again that doesn’t really matter
what adult in a 3rd world country is gonna give their kid this thing? so they can go online an do stuff that doesn’t matter? serisouly think about it…they need to make it for adults the small keyboard is rediculous…put a radio in it or a cell phone or something that would be a major bonus…
