Sophie and Philip, from Quebec, Canada, come into the OLPC offices at 1 Cambridge Centre (in Cambridge, MA) to learn how to repair one of the XO laptops.
They showed that a task as involved as replacing the motherboard is able to be completed by young children using a just a screwdriver.

Young intern. That's me.
They used instructions on the OLPC wiki, I provided some pointers, I wouldn't say I gave them "a lot of help".

Well DUH! Toronto, Alberta, BC, Halifax and the entire USA are right next door to an French-speaking nation, that doesn't seem to improve THEIR French one bit.
Over to you, dog.

Get help. They often do. They're right next door to an English-speaking nation.

Still, I wonder if these repair-situation would go so harmonious in a 3rd world setting, where the boys can be much more competitive. In that respect, gender segregrated IT-education is a must. A blessing in disguise in Muslim countries?

The kids are adorable, and no French, Anglo canadian, american or british kid, speaks ANY foreign language at that level, Sophie was speaking. Interesting to note that 8 year old Sophie's grammatical error "I have 8 years old" (typical for Latin based native speakers) was gone in her 10 year old brother.

It's totallly NOT great that the OLPC is in Canada. Unless every Western OLPC fully subsidizes MORE than one 3rd World OLPC, this will ONLY be to the detriment of 3rd world kids. The OLPC Corp. has huge production problems! The nickname of the OLPC is "$100 Laptop", no kid outside the 3rd world needs it! So, Quebec is considered a 3rd world country now? I'm sure that the Quebecois sometimes feel they are threated like a 3rd world country by the rest of Canada, but really ...

Such a heavy Québec accent.. they should teach em English young like they do in Ontario so they don't have an accent in either language, like us bilingual people from Ontario ;-)
For those of you wondering, what they say in French is exactly what they said in English. It's also Canadian/Québec French as opposed to France French.
