मेरो सानु साथी एक प्रस्तावित सस्तो शैक्षिक ल्यापटप कम्प्युटर हो जसलाई विश्वभरका हरेक बालबालिकाहरूमाझ बाड्ने योजना बनाईएको छ, खास गरेर गरिब मुलुकहरूमा। यसलाई अङ्ग्रेजिमा The Children's Machine नामाकरण गरिएको छ, जुन 2B1 वा XO-1 र पहिले १०० डलरको ल्यापटप भनेर चिनिन्थ्यो। यसको मुख्य उद्देश्य ज्ञान र शिक्षाको आधुनिक रूपको पहुँछ ति बालबालिकाहरू माझ पुर्‍याउनु रहेको छ। यस ल्यापटपको विकाश प्रति बच्चा एक ल्यापटप (ओएलपिसि OLPC) ले गरिरहेको छ। ओएलपिसि स.रा. अमेरिका स्थित एक गैर सरकारि नाफारहित संस्था हो, जसको स्थापना एमआईटि मिडिया ल्याबका अध्यापकहरूले त्यस ल्यापटपको परिकल्पना, निर्माण र बितरणकालागी गरेका हुन्।

The rugged and low-power computers will contain flash memory instead of a hard drive and will use Linux as their operating system.[1] Mobile ad-hoc networking will be used to allow many machines Internet access from one connection.

The laptops will be sold to governments and issued to children by schools on a basis of one laptop per child. Pricing is currently expected to start at around US$135-140 and the goal is to reach the US$100 mark in 2008. One thousand working prototypes were delivered in late 2006 and full-scale production is expected to start in mid-2007.[2]

Thailand "hopes to order one million laptops from the initiative ... and distribute them free to rural primary school children."

[परिवर्तन्] One Laptop per Child association

The One Laptop per Child association (OLPC) is a Delaware based, non-profit organization set up to oversee The Children's Machine project and the construction of the 2B1 "$100 laptop". Both the project and the organization were announced at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland in January 2005.

OLPC is funded by a number of sponsor organizations. These include AMD, Brightstar Corporation, eBay, Google, Marvell, News Corporation, SES Global, Nortel Networks, and Red Hat. Each company has donated two million dollars.

The organization is chaired by Nicholas Negroponte and its CTO is Mary Lou Jepsen. Other principals of the company include former MIT Media Lab director Walter Bender, who is President of OLPC Software and Content, and Jim Gettys, Vice-President of Software Engineering.[3]

OLPC is based on constructionist learning theories pioneered by Seymour Papert, Alan Kay, and also on the principles expressed in Nicholas Negroponte’s book Being Digital.[4] The founding corporate members are Google, News Corp, AMD, Red Hat, Brightstar and Nortel, each of whom donated two million dollars to the project. All three individuals and six companies are active participants in OLPC.
