Subject: [elearning] Leading and Learning article

The ISTE journal "Learning & Leading" current issue Vol 37.1 has a netbook article on page 14. You can download and read the free online PDF version from this link.  http://tr.im/wjuI It is a good 4 page summary of the different options spanning thick, ultraportable and thin computers and gives good mention to the XO-1. I rather like the point made at the end that a cheap solution is not desirable if it is created through draconian measures to limit access to technology resources and services.

Regards Roland

PS: As a member of ISTE. I will declair an interest and if you scroll down http://tr.im/wjuW .. (blush) a profile about me with a photograph taken standing on "The Dish" radio telescope with blue hard hat and the hand puppets I use to teach with :-)
