One Laptop Per Child Founder Says: Sugar as OS was 'mistake'

I bought an OLPC (One Laptop Per Child) XO during the first Give 1 Get 1 (G1G1) campaign. It seemed like a good idea to donate one XO to some child somewhere in the world and get one for my own child. Here’s the thing though: While the XO’s Sugar OS interface might be designed for a child, I can tell you that mine did not like it right away. Like many children in industrialized nations, she was comfortable and familiar with Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows.
