Edit: Never mind, I just reported you for trolling. The massive flop of the OLPC project is public record, your insistance otherwise is a clear marker of that. OLPC was going to be $100, deliver tens of millions laptops and "change learning", and it ended up at over $200 for the initial runs, with just 1.25 million delivered and has miserably failed to change educational philosophies.

Charities need to be held to the same standards as anyone else. Unsuccessful, splashy, wasteful efforts need to be hilighted, and the OLPC was all three. I give to charities with far better records.

And I repeat, please reveal your financial interests in PixelQi.

What have I done? Well, see, I don't have the need to brag, or to link my real life accomplishments to everyone on the web to see. Per Sanya Weathers, I don't "hang my ass out online".
