The OLPC Wiki - OLPCWiki. XO-2. From OLPC This page is monitored by the OLPC team. The XO-2 two sheet design concept was canceled in in 2009. [1] It was cancelled in favor of the one sheet XO-3, which was also cancelled in late 2012. See also the XO-4 laptop, which is a successor to the XO-1.75. On May 21, 2008, at an OLPC Country Meeting, design studies of a next-generation OLPC laptop/tablet (the XOXO, XO-2, or just 2) were shown to attendees and to the world press.

The second generation device from OLPC doesn't fits neatly into the "laptop" category. The form factor is instead that of a book or folded (clam shell) tablet (a handbook). The entire interior surface is a multi-touch sensitive display. Development of this design is currently halted. Usage At least three modes of operation are expected: Book mode - the handbook is used as a notebook or book reader, and viewed with its hinge vertical. The case will be sealed against dust intrusion and anything up to, but not including, immersion in water. Storage Networking. Omnitux. NANY 2009 Release: CrazyLittleFingers. DescriptionBub's are curious, bub's like to imitate. You're always amazed at the way bub copies the things that you do, and laugh when you see her with one hand one the keyboard and one on the mouse like a true fps'er, but at the same time getting quickly frustrated because 'nothing' is happening. And then she hits the magic combination to hack into the fbi, delete some important files and shutdown your computer.

The solution, CrazyLittleFingers. I don't want to deny my bub the simple pleasure of tapping away at the keyboard mindlessly, she may well write the next great OS, or simply become a DC member like her dad (and then write a revolutionary new program, that's donationware, of course). The aim of CrazyLittleFingers is simple, lock out all the keys on the keyboard, except for one that lets you exit the program, and remap each key to provide a reward for bubs exploration. For example, pressing 'g' will display a goat and bleat, while pressing 'c' will moo at you and display a cow. Tux Paint. One Laptop Per Child News. One Laptop per Child.
