Concept
The Happy 8600 is modeled after an XO-1, an inexpensive model distributed as part of the One Laptop per Child project. The laptop was made available to North American consumers during the 2007 holiday season in a "Give 1 Get 1" offer. Ironically, the XO-1 keyboard is designed to resist liquids.
Fun Facts
- The Brothers Chaps signed a XO-1 laptop at ROFLCon that was later auctioned for charity.
