When Maria Montessori designed educational materials, the items that children 
did not choose to use, but were left sitting on the shelves, were removed, 
and she replaced them with other materials.   Let's consider what happens 
when children are given OLPC computers for the first time later this month.

Yes, OLPC does stand for One Laptop Per Child.  You have to start somewhere.  
I know a number of people, myself included, who would like to see it progress 
to One Laptop Per Person.
