Hi there,

Does anyone know anything about the NDIYO system - another open-source tech? 
Check this out, please. http://www.ndiyo.org/systems

Knowing that you guys are pro-OLPC XO - the greenest laptop in the world.
would this be of any interest? Who'd say it can be complementary? competition?

Thanks Sandeep. I'm looking into speaking with some of the faculty members
in the university sometime this month and will be sure to mention our next
meeting this Feb 28. I believe one of the faculty in the Communication
Department mentioned the OLPC to her class late last year as one of the
topics for discussion.

I also just received Melch's demo unit. Thanks Melch.

Best,
John
