It's fully described as a OLPC XO laptop. I've got one, and find it painful to use, although it's got some useful and interesting features. I don't have time for that difficulty.
This one shows some possible problems with charging, so I sometimes had to use plugged in, mostly for the two months I was traveling with it. It does attract attention, though. Make an offer if you're interested in buying it.

Brings up the question, what is an OLPC? I do a google search and end up with "One Laptop Per Child". I don't think that is the proper context.

Nobody else has a OLPC. From where does one buy them?
