A wise man once said:
In a world without walls and fences there is no need for Gates and Windows…
US soldiers in Iraq definitely have to set up some software “walls” in their laptops as many get infected by viruses. The infection, as it is stated in Washington Post, in most cases comes from porn DVD’s that the soldiers buy in Iraqi markets. These bootlegged DVDs contain malicious software that tends to spread from PC to PC when soldiers share these disks between them.

Intel no longer support the MIT’s $100 laptop for kids
Intel Corp. decided to abandon the One Laptop Per Child Program that was founded by Nicholas Negroponte in 2005. The former director at the MIT aimed to deliver millions of laptops to children in developing countries. The price tag for these machines was set at $100 but currently the cost is at $188. The machines will run the open source linux and at the moment carry an AMD processor chip (rival to Intel).
