"An announcement came Sunday that the first ten prototypes of the  
Linux-powered OLPC XO-1 had been completed in China. From the article,  
'Quanta, the Chinese computer maker that won the international bidding for  
the project earlier this year, will assemble 900 OLPC machines that will  
be used for destructive testing and distribution to our development  
partners.' Let's hope that these first prototypes do not warrant any  
design changes and that the testing goes well so that countries that  
expressed interest (Brazil, Libya, Nigeria, Argentina, and Thailand) can  
start distributing them soon."
