Not too bad an article for OLPC (but no mention of Sugar or  
educational content). One hugely inaccurate, frustrating, and grating  
statement:

"Yet lots of people seem to want OLPC to flop. ... Techies have said  
it wouldn’t work and raged when OLPC replaced its bespoke operating  
system with one of Microsoft’s."

How do we kill this false meme? Where do Journalists keep picking it  
up from?

Regards,
