What happened to the $100 laptop?

Back in 2008 I pre-ordered three of the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) $100 laptops for $250 each in their “Buy one, Give one” campaign. After much delay they came in. I gave two of them to two tech guys in our office. After playing with them for a day, we were all in agreement that they were junk and I sold them on eBay for about what I paid for them. The Verge has the back story on why the promise of One Laptop Per Child didn’t pay out as planned.
