 "OLPC To Load $100 PC With Wikipedia Entries")
The $100 PC which is being developed by the OLPC association will ship with articles and snippets of information taken from Wikipedia.
“We are very pleased to have our content featured on the OLPC laptops,” said Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia. “OLPC’s mission goes hand in hand with our goal of distributing encyclopedic knowledge, free of charge, to every person in the world. Not everybody in the world has access to a broadband connection. This is exactly the type of project that advances Wikipedia’s core mission.”
Wikipedia, as it is universally known is an online enclyopedia where facts are contributed by the end users. While it is open to editing by anyone, Wikipedia often has inaccurate facts compiled into its entries which are taken on face value as the truth by readers. This is why i feel it is not a good idea to bundle any content from Wikipedia on to these laptops. It may lead to wrong information being spread on a variety of issues.
