The OLPC buy-one-donate-one offer is on again, and I noticed that  
there was a discussion about this last year, and several people had  
some in their hands.

This machine looks like a killer ham laptop for field day, outdoors  
work, or using in the shack on emergency power.  I read a criticism  
that the keyboard was too small but I seem to not use the keyboard  
that much for ham applications and one can plug an external keyboard  
and mouse in via the USB ports.

A year has passed; what's the opinion about these machines now?
