"The United Nations technology agency (ITU) announced today that it will give away free laptops to each of the young participants attending its Asia conference in Bangkok this weekend."
"The International Telecommunications Union is handing out the laptops at the opening of the Youth Forum, a branch of its ITU Telecom Asia 2008 conference, as part of its effort to increase access to cheap information and communications technology across the world.
Some 100 XO laptops are being donated by One Laptop Per Child (OLPC), the non-profit organization which developed and manufactured the machines, continuing its long-standing partnership with the ITU in the "Connect the World" initiative."
