Herman Hollerith invented the recording of data on a machine readable medium. Prior uses of machine readable media, above, had been for control, not data. “After some initial trials with paper tape, he settled on punched cards”.

[…] This computer sports a 700-MHz ARM11 processor, which is put onto a piece of silicon that is roughly the size of a USB stick. Despite its minuscule size however, it is a faster chip than the one originally featured on Apple’s iPhone 3G. The video signal comes courtesy of a small, unidentified GPU, with scenes rendered by OpenGL ES 2.0 up to a 1080P resolution. […]

Never ever is this going to sell for $25.

In reply to Anne O'nymouse. Yup, the $75 OLPC XO-3 includes a capacitive touch-screen Pixel Qi screen, battery, wireless, storage and more..

In reply to Anonymous. OLPC is open source and free for any distributor to distribute to the mass market if they so wish to. Intel grabbed the OLPC idea and released theirs to the mass market. About 150 million people have now bought an Intel powered OLPC clone so-called netbook. The idea of OLPC is to move things forward in the industry. OLPC has no preference for the one or the other component to be the one used in western computer markets, OLPC just wants cheaper and better devices that are better suited for educational use with the 1 billion Children currently waiting for better education in the developing world.

In reply to Maventwo. I think you misunderstood. I compared it to OLPC only for their (imho very poor) choice of not selling it on the mass market (like me). If could buy this PCB and it also has SPI, I have lots of ideas/projects I'd use it for. Probably even for 2x the price.

But the OLPC project is for children in poor countries where the OLPC is thought to be a tool for learn to write and usually schoolwork not for learning program making and computer skills.

OLPC and Rasberry Pi is nog competing on same market.

Both OLPC and Rasberry Pi is needed.

Holy shit that’s cheap! Please don’t go the way of OLPC and sell it only to children.
