Not sure if I understand the question. Hebrew is certainly supported under Linux and specifically under Fedora, so it will be available on the laptop. [[User:Walter|Walter]] 15:42, 3 August 2006 (EDT)

:A. It is possible to create Hebrew translation. There are a few people who are willing to fill the gaps (most of the I18n was already done in parent projects). Yet, for now olpc's are not intended for distribution in Israel.
:B. Hebrew fonts can be installed very easily. I am using Culmus on my XO machine, and it works fine (up to some B2 problems...). I can add explanations if needed. [[User:Zdevir|Zvi Devir]] 15:14, 10 September 2007 (EDT)

1) Technology Developed in Israel.
