The XO laptop is used as an educational tool to grow every child. Through the use of Linux free and open source software and software development efforts around the world, OLPC has been advocating the provision of multiple languages around the world.
The XO laptop runs free and open software that allows anyone to copy, distribute, research, modify and improve the software. OLPC believes that these freedom are crucial to fulfilling the educational goals of OLPC.
When you turn on the XO laptop, you will see a high-resolution, easy-to-read display, even in direct sunlight in the project. You can also flip the XO laptop into the book reading mode. The objective of the XO laptop is to take outdoor and even survive the messy daily life, leading children.
