One laptop per child, an awsome program Options

[CelicaST_CALI]

ok well,actually myspace showed this to me,i have heard rumors about this,it is a program to supplies laptops to poor kids in poor countries that cant afford even textbooks.This laptop has all the normal stuff,if i manly for the internet,it can view,photos,videos,play music,you can use a word program and much more.This laptop also has no moving parts,no fan,hard drive,and it comes with an amazing power source...anything!!!You get a crank,a foot pedal,or a pull cord to charge,you can also buy a solar charger if needed.It has a new type of batteries that has no toxic metals,did i mention it only weighs 3 pounds? And if you were to buy this laptop in America,one is shipped to you,and one is also shipped to a person or kid in another country at no charge(no its not an advertisement).I personally think this is one of the best things we can do to help other countries.
