I made a little paper card version of XO.

A small tribute to those of you who are anxious to receive your own XO...

I have a high res version as well. But, I have no idea how I can upload a big file like that...

You are number1 customer to my papercraft!

I did notice left and right are flipped.

Send one to the Economist so that they have an "XO" to back up their review allegations ("One clunky laptop per child"). Grin

If I suggest it, I have tested it on my XO.

You mean this one?

How do you know if they didn't get the XO?

Yes, torokun, Grin

That's the article. Actually, my comment that they didn't receive one was tongue in cheek because it has to be the stupidest review of the XO that I have read so far. The writer deserves the paper model.

I use Photoshop.

Ah... Yes, I agree that there wasn't much "review" about the hardware itself. Just the writer's biased opinion about the program...

Oh well... It seems like OLPC will not escape this trend...
