OLPC Thailand/Ban Samkha
Initial testing of B2 machines
In March 2007, twenty B2 XO machines were given to a school in Samkha village located in the suburbs of northern Thailand. A selected group of students were given the computer, which they take home. The students and teachers have been working together to test the basic functionalities of the machine and observe how the XO can be integrated into the learning activities currently taking place in the school.
