The XO Laptop From: http://laptop.org/en/laptop/hardware/index.shtml The XO Laptop: A small machine – with a big mission. The XO laptop is a learning machine designed and built especially for children, some of who live in the most remote environments. It’s about the size of a small textbook. It has built in wireless and a unique screen that is readable under direct sunlight for outdoor use. It is extremely durable, brilliantly functional, energy efficient, and most importantly fun. The XO is about the size of a textbook, and lighter than a lunchbox. It has no hazardous materials, and its batteries contain no toxic heavy metals. Experience shows that laptop components that are most likely to fail are the hard drive and internal connectors – the XO has no hard drive to crash and only have two internal cables. Its wireless antennas, which far outperform the typical laptop, double as external covers for the USB ports, which are protected internally as well. The display is also cushioned by internal “bumpers”. The estimated product lifetime is at least five years.
Hardware highlights: - Built in microphone for voice communication and recording, with an external microphone jack - Ultra low power, ultra high resolution screen with a black and white mode for reading in direct sunlight - Two sets of four direction cursor-controlled keys in the display frame - Built in camera providing still photography and video recording capabilities - 3 USB ports as well as a SD memory card slot - Antenna ears are rugged and are vastly superior to most conventional laptops For more detailed information, please go to: http://laptop.org/en/laptop/hardware/index.shtml
