The One Laptop per Child Foundation and Taiwan’s Quanta Computer have begun the mass production of laptop computers at a factory in China. The laptop, called the XO, is lime-green-and-white and runs on free Linux software.
The foundation was started by Massuchesetts Institute of Technology professor Nicholas Negroponte in 2005. Negroponte has been traveling and meeting world leaders to help get his computers into the hands of elementary school students in the developing world and elsewhere.
