$100 laptop makes its debut

The BBC talks about 'the green machine' here.
These are very cool; hand-cranks for power, mesh-networking to allow little grids to develop spontaneously and complete open source software to encourage tinkering and keep the price down. Well done to the MIT crew that developed the concept, got it off the ground and have inspired/shamed some of the industry biggies to come to the party. I hope it takes off in a big way.
