Don't blame the laptop for the kid destroying it.

Having said that, my son's XO has a slightly torn 8 key, probably from being slid across something by mistake. I'm waiting for a place to get a replacement KB as well, but the image above is someone deliberately, maliciously ripping keys off the keyboard.]]>Mar 27th 2008 3:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/Mar 27th 2008 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/Mar 27th 2008 9:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/Mar 27th 2008 3:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/Mar 27th 2008 3:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/Mar 27th 2008 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/olpc-keyboards-literally-being-ripped-apart/
