One size doesn't fit all

My 2 year old great nephew thought it was the perfect size. Don't even think about touch typing though - my fingers don't even come close to fitting.

Late News

Rec'd an email today informing me my XO laptop had shipped, more than 3 weeks after it arrived. Even then apparently it took 3 weeks to get from 'delivered' to my doorstep. Is this a government organization? Strange how they can track it right to the minute give or take 3 weeks.
