"Steve Jobs, Apple Computer Inc.'s chief executive, offered to provide free copies of the company's
operating system, OS X, for the machine, according to Seymour Papert, a professor emeritus at MIT

noting the designers want an operating system that can be tinkered with. An Apple spokesman
declined to comment."
