''"It's an education project, not a laptop project."''
''[http://www.laptop.org One Laptop per Child] is a project about the transformation of education. It's 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.''
