The One Laptop Per Child program originally developed this "XO Laptop" as an affordable, and extremely durable, laptop for children in developing nations. Learn more about their "Give One, Get One" (G1G1) program on their wiki at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Home
This is a great computer for children to learn on or for someone who needs a rugged laptop. It's very durable and can be dropped, get wet, etc. and still work. Laptop was used just a few times. My husband is a teacher and brought it in for his 2nd grade class to see. They were able to quickly use it to play games, draw and make music without any instruction at all. You can use it with T-mobile's wireless and we still have about 8 months left on a year long subscription that we will give to you with purchase of this laptop. You can also mesh with other XO users in your area. We were suprised to find many within a mile radius of us!
