India rejects One Laptop Per Child | The Register

India rejects One Laptop Per Child | The Register: "India has decided against getting involved in Nicholas Negroponte's One Laptop Per Child scheme - which aims to provide kids in developing countries with a simple $100 machine.

The success of the project depends on support, and big orders, from governments. The loss of such a potentially huge, and relatively technically sophisticated market, will be a serious blow."


Is this a smart thing to do ? Maybe this kind of effort has to be spearheaded by the industry in India.
