Pictures Of MIT's $100 Laptop Prototype

Pictures of the $100 laptop prototype have finally been made available. This laptop is for the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) campaign that started last year. It looks like it is running Fedora Linux and the pieces that swivel on each side (near the top) make it look a little devilish. Those swivel pieces appear to reveal some I/O ports for the laptop, but I am not sure if they serve another purpose as well. Looks like they haven’t given up on the project though.

    “The prototype unit, decked out in yellow and orange, has “horns” that flip up to function as Wi-Fi antennae and cover the USB and audio ports when not in use.”

    From BetaNews.
