I've been using computers in education and training since 1983. Don't need new research, just elearning and applications running on the global OS.
There's another vicious competitor - eBay. Get a real laptop running XP for less than the price of the OLPC toy. You don't need to waste new resources and put more carbon in the air, just so you can have a shiny toy. Nor do we need to condemn the world's poor to living as fanbois.
But keep wishing, Linux desktop is going to get to 1% global usage one of these days, years, decades, centuries.
