OLPC’s Mary Lou Jepsen Interview

Groklaw - Interview with OLPC’s Founding CTO Mary Lou Jepsen, by Sean Daly
Mary Lou Jepsen will go down in history as the founding Chief Technology Officer of One Laptop Per Child. She has recently announced that she is starting her own for-profit company, Pixel Qi, to commercialize some of the technologies she invented at OLPC while extending them. She calls it “a spin-out from One Laptop per Child.” And so naturally we had questions. Does this mean we will all soon be able to get an XO-like laptop for adults, no matter where we live? Sean Daly had the opportunity to conduct an email interview with Jepsen, and so we were able to get some answers to that and many other questions.
