The hay wranglers stopped by for the hay forks they left last time they delivered hay, and I noticed a box on the porch.  I didn’t think much of it, and brought it in while I told the wrangler where to find their hooks.  When I got back into the house, Jack was opening the box and saying “It’s a present for you.  I thought at first it was probably a new lens for my camera, but when I saw the edge of green I started squealing.   I’ve been  following the saga of the One Laptop Per Child for a while, so I recognized what it was as soon as Jack started lifting it out of the box. As I write this, Jack is hitting buttons to see what happens.

Excellent!

I've had mine since shortly before Christmas and I love it. I kinda bought it for myself and then we retroactively made it Kevin's big Xmas gift to me.

I wonder if there's an OLPC community on LJ yet, I should think there would be . . . (off to look)
