Comment that's his brother (Score 0) 195
you're talking about John Negroponte, Nick Negroponte's brother. they room together every now and then.
personally, I think that (Nick) Negroponte has a snowball's chance in hell of building the laptop whose specs are being publicized for less than $100. he may get lucky and charge other people more money for the same laptop to subsidize a sale price of $100 to developing nations. but I also doubt that; Negroponte has a very spotty record when it comes to delivering useful goods, as explained in the article.
