Give 1 Get 1: 2 laptop computers for $400!
Would it be legal for school districts to buy 1000 computers while giving 1000 computers? Could the state of Texas buy 1,000,000 and give 1,000,000 laptops? http://www.xogiving.org/ If you'd like to donate an XO laptop today, simply click the donation button on the right, above the photo. A donation of $200 will pay for and deliver one XO laptop to a child in a developing nation, $400 will pay for and deliver two XO laptops, and so on. Starting November 12, One Laptop Per Child will be offering a Give 1 Get 1 Program for a brief window of time. For $399, you will be purchasing two XO laptops—one that will be sent to empower a child to learn in a developing nation, and one that will be sent to your child at home. If you're interested in Give 1 Get 1, we'll be happy to send you a reminder email. Just sign up in the box to the left and you'll receive your reminder prior to the November 12 launch date. FAQ What can a $1,000 laptop computer do that the XO Laptop cannot? Not much. In fact, the XO laptop can do many things that a $1000 dollar laptop can not. For instance, the XO’s screen can be viewed as clearly as a newspaper in broad daylight. Also the wireless range of the XO is several times longer than your average laptop. Plus the XO laptop does not have any mechanical parts like a fan or a hard drive, which are by far the most common source of hardware failure in a laptop. The XO is more rugged, resistant, and power efficient than any computer on the market today. |
