"Doubts about whether poor, rural children really can benefit from
quirky little computers evaporate as quickly as the morning dew in this
hilltop Andean village, where 50 primary school children got machines
from the One Laptop Per Child project six months ago.
These offspring of peasant families whose monthly earnings rarely exceed
the cost of one of the $188 laptops — people who can ill afford pencil
and paper much less books — can't get enough of their "XO" laptops."
