Intel Edu-Wise: Cheap Laptops For All

 - GizmodoHot on the tail of the $100 laptop, Intel is looking to get itself a piece of hot third-world action by creating the Edu-Wise, a $400 laptop for developing nations. The original article was in Portuguese, but Google was able to tell us this about the project:

"It, however, said that the project of the Intel has all the functionalities of a common computer, being able to twirl an operational system complete, as the Windows, without the necessity of a simplified version."
