You don't need a laptop to test and experience the software. You can
do it right on your normal desktop computer! The developers at OLPC
have put in great efforts to make this possible so that all of us can
use the software and take part in submitting bugs and giving feedback
that would make it better for kids.

There are a number of ways of emulating the Sugar environment that the XO runs.

These are some helpful links --

The official OLPC website is http://laptop.org but a more dynamic
source of information would be the OLPC wiki
http://wiki.laptop.org
