''"It's an education project, not a laptop project."''
One Laptop Per Child is actually a project about the transformation of education. It's really about giving children who don't have the opportunity for learning that opportunity. So it's about access, it's about equity, and it's about giving the next generation of children in the developing world a bright and open future.</span>
