I just find it a fascinating concept.  Remember One Laptop Per Child?

http://laptop.org/en/laptop/hardware/specs.shtml

OLPC still seems to be alive and kicking, though nowhere near the numbers
hoped for I am sure, even 
so a couple of million built.  So much has changed since that project
started.  A RasberryPi would 
make a hell of a foundation for a new OLPC model.

I always hope such things do some good in the world.
