Heck, I'm pushing 40 and use an OLPC. Well, I did install Ubuntu on it, but it makes a great reader and a decent semi-rugged portable computer.

I've felt for a long time the one thing it misses the most is a touchscreen. I've considered hacking one into it, but nobody seems to make one that matches the screen's dimensions.
