Nicholas Negroponte's One Laptop Per Child project has decided to bring Intel on board as a partner and a possible future supplier, just a few months after Negroponte went on 60 Minutes and essentially accused the chip maker of trying to destroy his low-cost PC project. Intel has agreed to join the board of the OLPC and work with the organization on possible "collaborations involving technology and educational content," according to a press release Friday morning.

Of the planes upon which we could possibly project the graph of the multidimensional universe of human interaction, the plane of Good vs Evil is not exactly the most useful. But it can be... interesting.
