    hey there, thanks for commenting. LOGO fits perfectly into the OLPC picture. I wasn’t aware of the history behind it, though and it looks like I have some interesting reading ahead of me.

    Do you have an XO yourself?

    I will register at your site but I will have to get help from a Chinese speaking friend, first :)

    If you want to post in Chinese please feel free.
