Intel trying to DE-RAIL the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) initiative?

Lora Bentley reports:

Nicholas Negroponte is accusing Intel of trying to drive the One Laptop Per Child initiative out of business. The OLPC founder says the only reason the chipmaker is selling its Classmate laptop is because the OLPC machine uses AMD processors. And “Intel and AMD fight viciously,” Negropronte said.

This really heats-up the discussion with socialists and free-market proponents not knowing whom to support and whom to criticize!

Have fun with the discussion:
