For those of you who have been following the
One Laptop Per Child project and secretly (or not so secretly) wanting one for yourself - this may be of interest.
http://www.laptopgiving.org/From November 12th through the 26th, they are running a Give one, Get one program. For about $400 you can donate a laptop to a child in a developing country and get one for yourself. As I understand it, these were not meant to be commercially available so this may be the only opportunity to purchase one, though I don't know for sure.
I have to admit, I'm quite tempted.
