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".

If that was the case then why didn't Intel do this years ago?
Because Mr Ego-ponte came up with the idea, made the plan, put it into effect and is about to make it happen.
When he came up with the idea Intel and MS were laughing.
Now the reality of 200 Million or more new Linux and AMD users scares the CRAP out of Craptel and Microcrap.

If it helps and they make money, there's a clear market for the technology: that means that there is incentive to supply for the market. That would be a shame, I guess, for Mr. Ego-ponte.
