| 18:06.32 | bit2man | stickster_work: I think I found the answer. I have a friend who was looking for laptops for her grandchildren, and I thought of the project; however I guess XO doesn't "sell" laptops for us here in the states? |

| 20:37.27 | stickster_work | plarsen: the XO is sold here through the Give 1 Get 1 program. |
| 20:37.31 | stickster_work | See http://laptopgiving.org/ |
| 20:37.42 | stickster_work | That's how I bought my daughter's XO, well worth twice the price. |
| 20:38.19 | stickster_work | Each G1G1 includes a $200 charitable tax deduction (for the "Give 1" part), plus a $300+ T-Mobile hotspot 1-year membership. |
| 20:38.41 | plarsen | That program expired dec 31st?? |
| 20:39.10 | stickster_work | Oh, they didn't extend it past the New Year? |
| 20:39.41 | stickster_work | Oh well, the train stops for no one |
| 20:41.12 | stickster_work | I'll bet she can find one or more on eBay when they are listed by adult hackers who weren't paying attention to the point :-) |
| 20:41.44 | stickster_work | http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=olpc+xo |
| 20:41.45 | stickster_work | Ha! |
| 20:41.53 | stickster_work | Look at those prices; that's funny. |
| 20:42.32 | stickster_work | Watch out for scams there, to be sure. |
| 20:49.34 | plarsen | yup - as always |
