No, no no... don't you listen to Bill Gates?  He said that the One Laptop
Per Child program was worthless because people will use their phones running
Microsoft software as a computer.  Sheesh.

So clearly something so huge that it is 1/2 a laptop and 10x a cell phone
and does the job of both worse then either is clearly the way to go.
