Talk:Official OLPC FAQ

What can a $1,000 laptop computer do that the XO Laptop cannot?

It's better to just get to the point on this one, clear and no-nonsense.

limited by hardware

full-screen video, modern 3D graphics, Microsoft Windows

limited by software

YouTube video, MP3 playback, spreadsheets

Proposed new text:

Building a rugged and efficient laptop for under $200 obviously requires compromise. The XO is unable to do accelerated 3D graphics as used by many games, is unable to run Microsoft Windows, and is not expected to do full-screen video. Currently the included software does not include support for YouTube video, MP3 playback, or spreadsheets. The XO does not include built-in Ethernet or modem hardware.

G1G1 extension

Suggest updating the G1G1 program end date which is now the 31st of December. This would change at least two sections of the FAQ.
