Welcome...

XOforall.com represents all people who want XO laptops to become available for sale in developed countries, in a non-limited fashion, and are willing to purchase the laptops at an affordable, but reasonable markup. This includes educators, students, parents and regular consumers.

If you have not heard about OLPC and the XO, please read our Introduction.

We want OLPC to...

• Open XO sales to all public and private schools, educators, and parents in developed countries at an affordable, but reasonable markup, beyond the limited scope of the Give 1, Get 1 offer.

• Open XO sales to regular consumers in developed nations, at an affordable, but reasonable markup, beyond the limited scope of the Give 1, Get 1 offer.
  

Because...

• We believe that the XO laptop is suitable for, and would be very beneficial to, children and educators in schools in developed countries, as well as schools in developing countries, which are the OLPC's sole stated focus at the moment.

• We want the OLPC project to succeed and we believe that opening up the XO laptops for sale to educators, parents and consumers in developed countries at a reasonable profit margin will allow OLPC to benefit even more children while securing further funding from these sales to support the project in less financially secure, developing countries.
  

Therefore...

• This web site has been established to make a public statement and provide a sort of meeting place and medium for all those interested in OLPC and the XO in general.
