Roving VI Shots corespondent and LAVA member Justin Goeres participated in the "buy one get one" program that the OLPC foundation announced last year. This is where you spend $400 and you donate one laptop to a child in an impoverished nation and in return you get one laptop for yourself.

I caught up with him and got his feedback on the unit. One thing I learned was that it ships with an application called TurtleDraw. This little app is great for teaching programming in a graphical way. If you're thinking LabVIEW here, well, take a look and judge for yourself.
