Me gustó esta historia, creo que todos hemos oido historias como
estas, y quizá alguno en esta lista fue un niño hacker. Es verdad, las
OLPC probablemente generen varias historias como esta.

Jordan,

Some history may be useful: Joshua Wise was a significant contributor to
Linux on iPAQ at age 12, before he started high school. (Joshua, your
ears should start burning...).  He taught me to not under-estimate what
kids can do....

Kids have all day, and we don't ;-).
                           Regards,
                               - Jim
