Does it make sense to collect this type of material as well
as other reference material in a central location at
laptop.org.  Or can documents be attached to WIKI pages?

I have worked on a lot of different computers over time
and the "do ya remember" game begins to be a real issue.

Some will be hardware questions, some bootstrap, some driver
and some OS.... and finally the class material in front of the student.

I believe that the little XO will have a much longer life
than the common laptop we might have at work or home.  Also
the users will be scattered across the globe and time zones.



Thanks,
Tom Mitchll
