【財 經中心╱綜合外電報導】英特爾（intel）宣布退出OLPC（One Laptop per Child）低價電腦計劃不玩了，對OLPC只能獨家採用「XO」這款低價筆記型電腦表達強烈不滿，認為這對英特爾發展同類型產品「classmate」 非常不公平，雙方已陷入「理念上的死巷」。.....
hc評: 上文將專有名詞Classmate* (正如Acer公司的筆記型電腦稱為Travelmate)寫成 classmate (同學-- A member of the same class at school.)真是糊里糊塗......
*Classmate
A low-cost PC from Intel for the education markets of developing countries. Part of Intel's World Ahead program and introduced in May 2006, the Classmate became competition for the non-profit One Laptop Per Child initiative of Nicholas Negroponte (see OLPC). However, Intel joined the board of OLPC in July 2007 and is expected to collaborate on future products.
Linux and Windows Based - No Hard Disk
Like the OLPC, the Classmate has no hard disk. It uses 2GB of flash memory for storage and 256MB of main memory. It can run Windows XP Pro, a beginners version of Mandriva Linux as well as Metasys Classmate, an educational operating system based on Linux. The Classmate is powered by a 900MHz Celeron M processor.
