I am posting this content-free post from my brand-new OLPC, for which I am optimizing my planetarium and for which I hope to make an Astrometry.net client.
The tiny keyboard is going to take some practice! Here is a shot of me reflected in my office window, taken with the OLPC camera.
Discussions with Yann LeCun (NYU) and Jon Barron (NYU) got me excited again about my project to produce planetarium software for the One Laptop Per Child project. My planetarium is a totally human-readable, child-hackable, ascii python executable. And it is fast to compensate for the slow hardware. That said, the OLPC is the best possible platform for field support for amateur and student observing.
