Chief
At the One Laptop Per Child panel today at Shmoocon ’07, Ivan Krstic announced that the previously known specs have been updated. The XO had a 366Mhz AMD processor with little cache, 128MB RAM, and 512 NAND flash acting as storage. As of today, the machines will now be running the AMD Geode LX-700 at 433Mhz. It is a .13 micron chip which runs at 0.8 watts making for some nice battery life when combined with the new experimental LiFePO(4) cells. The RAM and storage have been increased to 256MB and 1024MB respectively. The 7.5″ sunlight capable screen has a resolution of 1200×900 mono and 692×520 color at 200 DPI.
