Lost Opportunity

I would have thought that it would be a good idea to distribute the OLPC through the likes of Toy'R'us to generate additional funds and reduce unit costs from the higher turnover. Young children would surely benefit from having such a computer and it would make an ideal Christmas or Birthday present as well.
