MacRumors.com: Apple Hires Former Security Director of One Laptop Per Child (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=701263)
I found this particularly interesting:
Bitfrost (http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Bitfrost) is a security specification that "sandboxes" applications into their own virtual operating systems, preventing viruses or other programs from damaging the operating system or accessing files. Given the focus of OLPC on children, Bitfrost is designed to be almost invisible to the end user.
