Nevermind about Wayan, his manners are nasty and provocative, so as to get more readership for his olpcnews website, and thus get more dough. He doesn't represent in the least the community of people interested and involved with OLPC and Sugar. @Rober Scoble.

I suppose you wrote your comment on a paper notebook and mailed it with a postage stamp to Scoble, right? The cost of one laptop can easily offset the cost of printing books for children every year. You know, that PDF thing works really well and does not consume paper or ink! Instead of complaining, jump in and bake the half-baked idea. Contribute, please! http://wiki.laptop.org/ @Harshad:

But most people in the world don't have any clue what OLPC is, which is why I ask lots of basic questions. My interviews aren't just for advanced coder types who have been geeking out on OLPC since the beginning (sounds like that is who you are, since you run a blog about OLPC). I would love to hear what questions you would have asked. Wayan: to someone who is really close to OLPC like yourself they might sound clueless.

Your lack of knowledge about OLPC and softball/clueless questions make Larry King Live look like 60 Minutes. Thanks for the interviews, but it would be nice if you also did your homework before hand.
