Negroponte - missionary not manufacturer
Posted by: Justina Spencer
 
It was one of the more arresting moments of my broadcasting career. In the middle of our interview, Nicholas Negroponte picked up a laptop on the coffee table in front of him and flung it across the room. But this was not just any laptop - it was the machine created by Mr Negroponte's One Laptop Per Child organisation. And he wasn't furious with me, just trying to make a point about the rugged virtues of the XO laptop in a very graphical manner.
