OLPC to sell laptops to me, you, and everyone we know

The One Laptop Per Child [olpc] project is now allowing anyone to buy a laptop for $399, thus covering the cost of a 2nd laptop that will go to a child in a developing country. They have done so amidst a disappointing lack of orders from governments, who previously were the only ones able to place orders. As an added bonus, the second laptop will be tax-deductible.
