[dundee] OLPC is now going ARM

[gordon dunlop]

I think the author of the article coughed and spluttered when the news came
in that Negroponte had decided that the OLPC was definitely switching
architecture from x86 to ARM. Okay a bit of a work up for the Sugar Labs and
Fedora people making sure the applications work on ARM but at least the
Windows idea has been finally and totally binned and also ARM is a U.K.
