    I've been looking for an affordable, efficient, ruggedized laptop for years and will be getting at least one of these amazing OLPC machines next month. My quest is to interface them to the real world, bridging open source, network, fabrication and farming technologies. Initial projects of interest are programming PIC chips and developing a waterwise garden irrigation controller. If some means can be devised to apply RTOS, possibly even exploring the possibilities use as a CAM controller. This would be an interesting hack, considering this system heavily sleeps the CPU as a central power saving feature.
