One Laptop per Child (OLPC) and its XO laptop were designed for children in the developing world. So far, they have shipped over 500,000 connected, solar-capable laptops to children in some of the poorest, most rural places on Earth. Deployments are underway in dozens of countries, including Rwanda, Ethiopia, Mongolia, Cambodia, Afghanistan, Haiti, and Nepal. These children learn, play, program, and have access to thousands of books in their language, as well as millions on the Internet.

We are asking people all over the world to give a laptop, or give and get a laptop, to transform the lives of children, and - one connected child at a time - change the world. OLPC is a non-profit, humanitarian organization with a real story and success in the field.

Here is a great video for you computer and animation enthusiasts. Have you ever wondered what would happen if all the cool scary and destructive stuff you imagined and designed on your computer screen were actually real? Stick man vs pc mouse
