Re: MIT's laptop with a handcrank $100 (real)
The design is spectacular, really nice stuff, but the 100$ cost target is a pipe dream...
Think about it, how much is replacing the battery in your laptop? Does it feature a crank and charging mechanism? No, its just a battery... and it produced in gigantic volume...
unless it's black and white and runs on a Motorola 68000 CPU, I dont see it being <100$
