OLPC G1G1 comes to the EU!

12 11 2008

olpc-typeA recent announcement on the OLPC news site confirms that finally those of us in Europe will be able to take part in the popular Give One Get One scheme where the price you pay for one allows for a second laptop to be given free to a needy child elsewhere.

Details are still a little sketchy, but it seems that 17th Nov is the launch day for the scheme.

Thanks to ntoll for the tip-off :)
