There are no magic bullets, and any investment in the OLPC should not detract from attention, energy, and resources otherwise committed to other causes and projects - such as providing basic living needs and health services that these same regions need.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Anthop]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 12:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OLPC's XO Generation 1.5 Laptop handled, speed tested - on video!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[...other speech about the obvious.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[OneLove]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 12:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OLPC's XO Generation 1.5 Laptop handled, speed tested - on video!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[The "an" is implied. :)P]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[OneLove]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 12:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OLPC's XO Generation 1.5 Laptop handled, speed tested - on video!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[*shrug* Had to say it :P.<br><br>The OLPC is awesome and this is awesome news; I just get a little annoyed when people treat this like a tech toy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Anthop]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 12:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OLPC's XO Generation 1.5 Laptop handled, speed tested - on video!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed.  I get annoyed when people say "this is stupid, we need to give those kids a Windows PC so they can learn what the rest of the world uses."  Not only is the "standard" OS constantly changing but it's really irrelevant.  It's not about giving them something to put on their CV to land a secretary job, it's about giving them a tool to aid in their early education.  <br><br>I'd love to snag one of these for my 5-year-old nephew.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lars]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 2:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OLPC's XO Generation 1.5 Laptop handled, speed tested - on video!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/olpcs-xo-generation-1-5-laptop-handled-speed-tested-on-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[OLPC is just another way to sell crap to poor countries.
