Moore
There’s a lot of effort going into creating the $100 laptop. But the question that occurs to me is why you can’t just take older technology and produce the laptops using that.
For the kind of applications that are going to be run on it, surely there’s no reason why something with a 1Ghz processor can’t be used. I remember my 1Ghz P2 (perhaps P3) laptop. I wrote a lot of Chatbear on it, I did a lot of web-browsing. It was the only computer I used for ages. With Moore’s Law, surely nowadays you could make it for less than $100?
And it wouldn’t be green and plasticky with a stupid operating system either.
