| The One Laptop Per Child Foundation of Cambridge was established to bring the world's children a $100 laptop, and according to founder Nicholas Negroponte, the organization is still determined to reach that goal. But last year, it quietly raised the price of its proprietary XO laptop from $188 to $204, more than twice what the foundation originally hoped to charge. Now Negroponte is promising to cut the price of the XO by $24, to $180. |
