One laptop for every Niuean child

A tiny island in the South Pacific has ordered and received laptops from the OLPC initiative for all its school children.  Mind you Niue has a total population of only about 1700, I couldn’t find any figure for how many children they have in school.  No word on whether they have the Linux or the Windows version, for their sake, I hope Linux.

Interestingly “in 2003, it became the first territory to offer free wireless internet to all its inhabitants.”
