Nicholas Negroponte's One Laptop per Child Foundation (OLPC) has started selling its famous $100 (XO) laptop computers for no less than $200 per piece.
The laptop computers are being made available in amounts of 10,000 and more through the OLPC Internet site at laptopfoundation.org/participate/givemany.shtml).
Until now, the one constant in the journey of the $100 laptop has been the steady increase in prices: from the original $100 to the temporary $150 to the fresh $188.
Further, the XO laptops are slated to go into production in China next month, which is behind original schedule. Same with the quantities to be produced, which are way behind earlier projections.
