[citation][nom]nekatreven[/nom]Wow, what an ignorant statement you have made. Checking just now, newegg.com's lowest priced netbook with LINUX is 299.99.This is not to mention that OLPC started doing this in early 2005 and at that time there were no netbooks to compare to; thereby making the 'next best thing' much, much more expensive.You may be able to get some sponsorships and grants to give some folks some laptops for $200, but you can't do anything that is sustainable for that price.Besides, if it was that crappy of an idea, Intel wouldn't have run off from the OLPC group and started their own version...greedy bastards.[/citation]
I said half decent used notebook, who said anything about new netbook? Check eBay for Thinkpad T3X, T4X price.
