Abstract

It is an intriguing idea: Together with national governments, corporations and caring individuals ensure that children around the world, particularly in developing nations, have access to their own laptop computer. Image the impact as children of the world have the opportunity to “explore, experiment and express themselves” (Laptop, 2007) with this symbol of 21st century empowerment.
