OLPC Founder and President, Nicholas Negroponte, has said the change in operating systems might be necessary, as some governments have refused to allow non-Windows computers to be used by their school children. 

The OLPC program has manufactured laptop computers, selling for just under $200, to be used by school children in countries that normally would not have been able to offer computers in schools. During the past two years, over 500,000 laptops have been sold for children in Mongolia as well as Afghanistan and Peru.
