The One Laptop per Child (OLPC) project is extremely important to the children of the world, but after the board of the not-for-profit project put pressure on the Intel chipmaker to stop supporting “other efforts in emerging markets”, they went and pulled out altogether.
Now what damage could this do to OLPC?
I am not sure why the board asked them to-do that, as if they were giving them support its all good, but they were not happy because that wanted help exclusively and wanted work on the Classmate PC and other systems stopped…maybe a bit greedy or not, that depends on what way you look at it.
