Peru Orders 260K OLPCs, Mexico to Get 50K

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the see-we're-not-scared dept.

eldavojohn writes "Perhaps in response to recent news that the lawsuit against the OLPC may be a scam, Peru's government has announced they want 260,000 OLPCs and a Mexican billionaire by the name of Carlos Slim has also asked for 50,000 that he wishes to distribute in Mexico. Things are looking good for the OLPC."

    I guess Carlos can afford to hand out these $200 laptops.
