It really is on topic, if you read the article...

>From the CTO of OLPC (One Laptop Per Child):

"The Chief Strategy Officer at AMD, Billy Edwards, describes our design of the
$100 laptop as the first fundamental revisit of personal computer architecture
since IBM launched the PC in 1981. Twenty-five years, and now, for the first
time, we're redesigning the whole architecture — hardware, software, display —
and we're coming up with some remarkable inventions and innovations. This is
not a cost-reduced version of today's laptop; it's an entirely new approach to
the idea of a laptop."
