Surprise!

January 05, 2008 – Click on image for higher resolution version.

The hay wranglers stopped by for the hay forks they left last time they delivered hay, and I noticed a box on the porch.  I didn’t think much of it, and brought it in while I told the wrangler where to find their hooks.  When I got back into the house, Jack was opening the box and saying “It’s a present for you.  I thought at first it was probably a new lens for my camera, but when I saw the edge of green I started squealing.   I’ve been  following the saga of the One Laptop Per Child for a while, so I recognized what it was as soon as Jack started lifting it out of the box. As I write this, Jack is hitting buttons to see what happens.

  1. Kudos to Jack for the BEST surprise of the season! My family all went together and split the tab on OLPC — but we donated both of them so we could get double-duty for our bucks. Yours is so cute I kinda wish I’d kept one …. ENJOY!!

  2. Neat! You’re the second person I know of who has gotten one of these. I was out of work when they had their original G1G1 window, but they extended it and I got a new job, so I donated a few days after Christmas. I’m hoping to have mine by the end of January.
