You were not giving the "facts". You were trying to draw comparison between the Intel and the OLPC by presenting your skewed perception of how the product is supposed to be used. Remember that the intent of the OLPC is supposed to be used by children that lives in harsh remote area where there would be little to no electricity and/or wireless connection. You justapose that with a short story of how you give your children, who live in the comfortable, air-conditioned, suburban home a classmate as a little toy which most likely were given to you by Intel to review.
So may be next time before review your "facts" I think you should disclose the fact that a) Intel let you and your kids play with the machine b) You haven't experienced what an OLPC is like because they don't have the luxury to give it away to a shill to review.
