Made by www.90percentofeverything.com, this video demos the OLPC (One Laptop Per Child, aka "Hundred Dollar Laptop") User Interface (using an emulator). It's pretty unconventional and worth having a look. Check out 90percentofeverything.com for a clearer version of this video.

  • As simple as Windows? Surely you're joking. As simple as Windows, the most malware ridden, difficult to use operating system ever invented by mankind. Right. Go learn Unix, moron.

  • Umm... The interfaces I used in grade school were VERY different from the interfaces I use now. But those computers were a "doorway" into the computing world that was invaluable to me today.

    It's called "learning" you should try it sometime.

  • @CerebralGump I totally agree with you! :) ... We need to start departing from the Steve Jobs line of thinking... I won't say windows because there isn't anything called "windows way of doing stuff" .... They say windows stole most of the ideas, if not all!

    Sugar is supposed a departure from traditional desktops. Windows may seem simple to you but that is because you have used it for many years; you learned it. You've learned the Microsoft way of doing things, making anything dif..."

  • Good concept but too much "wrong" marketing messages around.

    Till now none of the models has even got a color-display.

  • @metalboy5150 that hit the spot

  • @metalboy5150 surely you most be kidding Windows is nt dificult to use....better think before u critizize any1 otherwise you will look foolish, like rite now...

  • Strange Linux distro, but cool.

  • I wish there was a single day that I lived that I didn't witness an irrational, illogical, selfish remark. Nationalism is a disease. If you can't see the glory and hope that glimmers in a durable, sensible, and highly useful piece of affordable machinery in the hands of our world's children whom at first would be less knowledgeable without, you are the one who is unfortunate. In the end, I smile knowing that those remarks stay in green muck as people who care continue doing something great.

    lol What about Unix do you want to learn? "Teach me Unix" is like saying "Teach me music," or "teach me cooking." It's just not that simple. What about Unix do you want to know? The basics, or what? Do you currently have a Unix system? Get back to me, and I'll see what I can do, if you're serious. On the other hand, if you're not serious, NO BITCH! hehe
