They'll make their big profits on the laptop batteries...if only these people could afford to pay $75 for batteries.

Yeah, hey. I see those poor kids can buy those 200 laptops but they have to get them in lots of 10,000. How many poor kids do you know that can afford 10,000 $200.00 laptops? I guess they figure that it will be governments buying the laptops and passing them out. The same governments that spend all the money they have now on corruption and don't care if their people starve....are suddenly going to start buying 10,000 unit lots of cheap computers because they suddenly grew a heart.
