The MIT "$100 Laptop" uses the AMD Geode [EMAIL PROTECTED] See: http://wiki.laptop.org/wiki/Hardware_specification According to Jim Gettys, the reason is because it's the only low-power processor they could find that has hardware floating point. OLPC needs extremely low power (~5W for the whole system including LCD). The GX runs much slower than the NX, but consumes about 1W rather than 6-14W. The GX is the old National Semiconductor Geode line; the NX is a low-power Athlon core. The OLPC demonstrator used an AMD "Rumba" development board, which you might be able to find and try. The simplest thing that works is almost certainly a modern laptop. Beware of the Sony small/light ones: they use lots of custom, undocumented chips, and won't run standard Windows or Linux distributions (they're only warranteed when running their OWN windows distro).
