Richard Stallman on OLPC

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the no-not-literally-it-would-break dept.

memshankar writes "In an interview while he was in Hyderabad, India RMS praises for the One Laptop Per Child Project. He is even contemplating making a switch to XO, the flagship machine of the project, from his "old thinkpad". Stallman went on to say that the OLPC laptop has given people a way to use the free BIOS. He is, however dissatisfied with the wireless networking system used in the XO."

    Off-topic ? Come on moderators can't you see the point that pronouncements by RMS on the subject of washing powder would be at least as interesting as this article ( such as it is ) and probably more useful.
