 A colleague of mine said it made him think twice about kissing his wife goodbye in the morning, |
| And what's really frightening, or interesting, depending on your perspective, is that the change from now will even be faster and bigger than we're expecting. |
| Any previous doubt that a very-low-cost laptop could be made for education in the developing world has just gone away. |
| By the year 2000, most Americans will be online one way or another. |
| Children are the greatest natural resource of any country, and educating these children is at the root of solving our largest and most complex problems. Yet the best education may not come from sitting in a traditional classroom, but rather through independent interaction and exploration. The development of a $100 laptop will now make this possible for all kids -- especially those in developing nations. |

| I think $1 trillion a year by 2000 is modest, |
| I've told the governments that our price will float and go down over time, |
| If you get those kind of results, I'm going to build the machines. There's enough passion and enough kids that are able to do things they were not able to do before that justifies it. |
