Figures Bill Gate$ doesn't like it, god forbid somebody combines business and philanthropy and one-up M$ at the same time. I think the whole thing is a very interesting project and has the potential to lead to a technological revolution in less developed countries.
And bogus, it looks like a child's toy because it's meant for children.

I think these developing countries should get some clean drinking water, food, and electricity before they get computers.

That was in the original mockup, yea, but it seems to be missing from the final product.

Its a great invention, IMO. Then again, I worship anything that has MIT even remotely connected to it
