The XO laptop is being upgraded- giving it more power and learning versatility.
The wireless ready laptop features a sealed, rubberized keyboard which is resistant to
water, dust, and dirt. It can handle being dropped. It’s scaled small for child-sized
hands and has a lighter touch than normal keyboards. It can be used as an e-reader
and is easy to read even in sunny conditions. It has an inexpensive battery that can
run for up to eight hours- which can be charged by a $12 optional solar panel. It's a
very good investment. For donation only.

Will the U.S. catch the bug? Desire to work on a farm during your 2 week holiday
in August? It's all the rage in Europe. I couldn't find a multiple list of Farm Holidays
in the U.S. other than international sites that include a few U.S. farms on them. The
Farm and Breakfasts look really beautiful in Ireland & Italy. Iceland has numerous
farms as well- for those who enjoy a cooler climate.

The Slingshot boils, distills and vaporizes polluted water and can burn cow dung for
its source of fuel. "It makes 250 gallons of water a day, enough for 100 people, and it
will do it for five years with no filters, no membranes, no disposals," states Dean
Kamen.
