OLPC is back on sale on Amazon

If you wanted to get your hands on the much talked about XO Laptop, this is your chance.

One Laptop Per Child has relaunched their Give One Get One promotion through Amazon web stores.

This offer enables the user to pay for two laptops. He gets one of the two units. The other one is donated to a child in a developing nation.

This scheme raised more than $35 million for laptops in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Cambodia, Rwanda, and other developing nations during the first offer.

Nicholas Negroponte, founder and chairman of One Laptop Per Child spoke about the offer: “The phenomenal success of last year’s Give 1 Get 1 program created tremendous demand from both the public who wanted to give more and from countries that saw an opportunity to attack poverty through education. Renewing the program now will help us scale existing deployments and expand into many other countries as well.”
