change the world?

I've been getting more and more excited by the OLPC project. Not only is it exciting technically, it seems like it has huge potential to change the world.

It'll take a few years before the educational goals bear fruit, but it'll have a huge technical impact much sooner. A lot of the cool technology could make its way out to non-OLPC hardware -- displays, power management, networking, security, exciting Python changes... lots of great stuff.

The Daily Python-URL pointed me here. A great introduction to the project, its goals, and the technology.
