Chip-maker Intel "should be ashamed of itself" for efforts to undermine the USD 100 laptop initiative, according to its founder Nicholas Negroponte. He accused Intel of selling its own cut-price laptop - the Classmate - below cost to drive him out of markets. Professor Negroponte, who aims to distribute millions of laptops to kids in developing countries, said Intel had hurt his mission "enormously".

Maybe it is the cynic in me, but I feel that Intel is out to make money rather than help developing countries. I met some of the OLPC people at this year's FUDCon Boston, and they seem to be generally concerned with helping others than helping their shareholders.
