Since cost is not as important in USA as it is in other countries, we need 
to show substantially different outcomes comparing OLPC laptops with, say, 
Windows XP or Apple. Americans want the best quality education at any cost.

My opinion is that we need an army of anthropologists documenting everything 
that is happening in Uruguay, Mongolia, and Peru.
