Intel Resigns from One Laptop Per Child Project

Submitted by

theodp writes "Reportedly angered by the One Laptop Per Child project's demand that it curtail work on its Classmate PC and other cheap laptops, Intel has canceled plans for an Intel-based OLPC laptop and resigned from the nonprofit's board. Intel's screw-the-children-of-the-world's-poor hissy fit comes less than six months after the chipmaker giant earned kudos for agreeing to contribute funding and join the board of OLPC. It's the latest blow to the OLPC, whose CTO quit three days ago to launch a for-profit company to commercialize her OLPC inventions."
