Hardware, Embedded Systems 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".

as they keep saying; "give a man a fish and he does not go hungry for a day, teach him to fish and he may never have to hungry again".

The more common phrasing is:
"Give a man a fish, and he will have food for a day.
Teach a man to fish, and he will have food for a lifetime."

The original is:
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime” — Author unknown
