CNN.com recently featured a nice piece about EXTREMELY affordable laptops that will be made available to children in Libya, Thailand and other developing countries through the One Laptop Per Child program. The "XO" machine, which will run on a version of the Linux operating system, will cost about $150. They aren't incredibly powerful - they have a 512 megabyte flash drive in lieu of a traditional hard drive - but they will offer a leg up to children who otherwise wouldn't have access to technology.
