OLPC XO Laptop


Last year, students in this course held a fundraiser to buy two XO laptops. These laptops have been designed for use by students in Third World countries. They are given to students to take home where in some cases, they might be the only source of light. The class kept one laptop and the other was donated to the OLPC Program.

The XO contains many innovative features such as daylight visible screen, a flash drive, mesh networking and a large collection of pre-installed software.

Class Update #3

In the past couple of classes, we have found our binary position number using our placement in the classroom, along with binary, we found that in Wolfram alpha, we have discovered our binary code converted into hexidecimal numbers. And alongside with our blog, we have signed up for google analytics to track our blogsite.

Class Update #1

This posting is being made in my ICT class. In this course I am working with various programming languages, and presently I am exploring the legacy language, Pascal. Some other languages include python, visual basic, C++, and java.
I have a school google apps email address and a Gmail address. I need the Gmail address for some advanced google apps that aren't part of the education set.
