It's been known for a while that Intel was planning on introducing some competition to the educational-laptops-for-developing-countries market. In fact, Intel has apparently already produced and shipped many of them to markets in Central and South America. A major difference between the Classmate PC and the OLPC is that Intel's machine runs with Windows XP, rather than the XO platform. It's build to be durable, like the OLPC, too. According to initial reviews (here's one from CNet), the Classmate is probably more comparable in specs to the Asus EEE than the OLPC, though.
Here's a YouTube demo of the Intel Classmate PC: |
