One Laptop Per Child
CBS
Sunday Dec. 3,2007
Sixty Minutes
Negraponti developed a laptop that can be used by the third world classmate. It's called :"the classmate". Americans can buy one classmate now until the end of December only. When one is purchased, a child in the third world will also receive one.Children have ten hours of programming in a battery. then, a child can generate more energy by turning this turnkey over a few times.
The computer cannot be ruined by water or sand. It has been used very successfullyin Cambodia and Brazil and now heis introducing it in parts of Africa. What do you think of this? please remember to always leave your link and thank you

I think kids in Third World countries should have the same options as our own kids here in U.S. It's kind of like in the days when the printing press was invented, and suddenly, even middle class people could have access to books, and more people learned to read because more books were available for the common folks. Not just the wealthy and the educated. The future looks brighter when a country's children can grow up to become adults who are able to help with the development of their own country. bea
