One Laptop Per Child announces 4 million pre-orders

With a minimum of five to ten million pre-orders needed to produce the laptops for the One Laptop Per Child project, I am sure they were happy to announce that they have secured four million pre-orders so far. Even without India’s help.

A spokesperson for the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) programme revealed that Nigeria, Brazil, Argentina, and Thailand have all tendered commitments to purchase one million Linux laptops.

I look forward to seeing how the project does, even with all its critics.
