Why does it seem like the project is "going off the rails"?  Full-scale
manufacturing is underway.  There is a solid order for 100,000 laptops, at
least.  The software stack is approaching the "1.0" level of feature
completeness.  A huge number of volunteers have stepped up to create a broad
spectrum of innovative educational activities.  In short, the OLPC project is
going splendidly.

You are standing in the afternoon of a beautiful, clear summer day, holding an
umbrella and complaining about the rain.  You should just be happy, instead.
