You bring up an interesting point, yvanleterrible, specifically that not everyone is going to be a programmer, just like not everyone is going to be a CEO or airline pilot. But that's a good thing -- where would we be if everyone was an airline pilot? Who would build the stinkin' airplanes?!?

So that suggests that if they used the E-3, instead of the OLPC not all of the kids who got one would make full use of it. For that matter, a lot of them wouldn't make full use of the OLPC, I suppose. But to the ones who would, the more capability they can have access to, the better. I just don't have any idea where that balance point would be.
