It's a comment on the recent misfortunes of the One Laptop Per Child project. The YouTube video is a parody of the "Leave Britney Spears Alone" kid (pretty much what it sounds like).


I'm still a fan of the OLPC project and think it will pull through. However, even if it doesn't, it has still showed the industry that there is a demand for such a laptop and that it can be built, so it's all good. :)

sounds to me like they will pull through, they just need to work with other visionaries, like Mark S. for example... What made them go with intel while using AMD parts??

"A Peruvian government official said that after the country recently agreed to buy 272,500 OLPC laptops for primary-school students, an Intel sales representative tried "to scare us" by claiming the machines and their power adapters failed to work, according to the report."

Might have been timely in September, but very dated now, and not very funny to begin with.

Just read an interesting article on that issue.
