Sdenka Salas - The XO Laptop in the Classroom (NEW): The lesson ideas in this book show many ways the XO and Sugar interface can be put to work in classrooms.

Activity Handbook: A software developer's guide for creating software for Sugar

Laptop overview: A short overview of the XO laptop's hardware and software features.

getting started guide: Beautiful, interactive pages that describe XO hardware and the 7.1.0 or "ship.2" release. As of November 2008, http://laptop.org/start redirects to this
