    The Launch of the $100 Laptop

    Mit_laptop_largeNicholas Negroponte, the founder of MIT's Media Lab, unveiled its $100 wireless laptop computer at the United Nations Technology Summit in Tunisia this week.

    It hopes to make millions of the devices, the size of a text book, to give to the poorest people in the world with units ready for shipment by the end of 2006 or early 2007.

    Michael Parekh's post contains the specifications for those interested.
