<div>Is there any proof that sugar is used everyday by nearly 3 million children at stated on the website? My research from 2 countries which have purchased over 100,000 laptops has indicated that due to non-deliver, breakage, and disuse, the term 'used daily by 3 million children' is overstating use by an order of magnitude.<br><br>Optimism can be valuable.

(Me neither, of course)</div><div><br></div><div>Sean said we need images and he requested that in the past without success.</div><div>Maybe we can try again?</div><div><br></div><div>We still need a graphic designer (someone in IAEP available?)</div><div><br></div><div>It's possible work in the <a href="http://sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">sugarlabs.org</a> as a project, with the marketing guys,</div><div>the developers and the designers together?
