Just what's on the tech/rumor sites.

Half the stories on http://olpcnews.com
etc.

A lot of people seem to be under this impression.  If they're not actually working on XP then
OLPC have a PR gaffe on their hands.  They might want to issue a press release or at least a
position statement.

Well, we'll see!  I still predict the slow demise of Sugar -- no big loss IMO -- but I love
the hardware and hope it has a bright future.
