I wonder if the $100 laptop will be made available to all, or whether its sale will be restricted to its target of developing countries?

For that price, I'd like a couple to play with, and I'm sure an enterprising soul could have a go at getting UAE up and running on it, if its CPU is good enough. Specs indicate 500MHz, but not sure of the type of CPU - possibly an AMD given the list of sponsors.

Hmm... the MIT Media Lab web site states this: Please note: these laptops are not in production. They are not — and will not — be available for purchase by individuals.

Oh well! D'oh! :-(
