OLPC arrives with XOs

Well, it seems that the project has made good – at least at the outset. CrunchGear has pictures of the first units arriving. I can’t help but think about what a massive accomplishment this is when you think about how everyone thought it would never work (nobody believes in the humanitarians any more it seems) and then when it got rolling, there were still nay sayers. Other companies – little ones like Microsoft and Intel proposed their own solutions, both to be left on the press room floor (or so it seems). Congrats to Nicholas Negroponte and his crew to get this idea from start to start in about three years.
