OLPC arrived today!
didn't let the kids see it, as I'm paranoid, and if it was a "green brick" I didn't want them to be as dissapointed as me!
so, after they fall asleep...
took it for a spin. Connected to my wireless, browsed the web, and found "gcompris.activities.xo"
so now it has the same set of activities as the iMac, plus the new ones.
now I have to hide it, and see if it survives the pair, 4 and 6...
I didn't get "one laptop per child" so we'll see if it gets killed tomorrow.... ;)
but hey, it is supposed to be able to withstand kids ;)
general impressions:
screen fantastic!
keyboard: really too small for me to even try to touch type, I'm back at my other system now.
wireless; works like a charm.
did drop to the command line. Neat.
didn't stream from the cbc .ogg site by just clicking on the link :(
looks like I'll have to install something.
