Well, OLPC itself did spend what seemed like considerable energy and 
software design decision making on the security and anti-theft side of 
things. So I don't think it was just the naysayers who were worried...

In any case it's good that this is much less of an issue than many 
(including yours truly) had originally assumed:-)
