Because as already said in a previous post Microsoft Xp , Vista and Mac OS X lite and Mac OS X don't run on the original OLPC hardware.
In case you missed it the original 60$ OLPC computer turned into a 150$ device after the demand of Microsoft and other special interest requirements , but they finally made it working on a newer updated hardware wise and software wise model at 200$ per unit years after the original deadline , by investing outside the project in outside developers.
