Side note: Ok, not that OLPC isn't cool and shiny and exciting... but
is it really a good example to be using in regards to what Fedora needs
to adapt to? I mean, without one of the OLPC machines... what benefit
does the OLPC have to Fedora itself? To be honest, I almost see OLPC as
being it's own distro. (One that I would personally love to play with
myself because it _does_ sound cool.)
