This is an article on how the OLPC has had a very strong influence on the
shaping of the laptop industry, in fact I would say it revolutionised this
industry through starting a domino effect of sequential events.

What made me chuckle is that I gave a presentation for one of the modules
for my Masters at Abertay on the OLPC approx early 2006, that  gave puzzled
looks from two of my course lecturers when I said this will revolutionise
the PC industry. They thought I was just a mad Linux geek.
