July 23, 2007 The Importance of View Source: $100 Laptop
Today’s [BBC writeup][1] of the $100 laptop revealed that not only will the laptop be inexpensive, it will be built to withstand the riggors of dusty, damaging environments and outdoors use, and it will also have a key dedicated to **view-source:**
> [T]he keyboard does away with low-use keys such as Caps Lock. In their place are new buttons such as the “geek key” or “view source”, which allows children to quickly see the underlying code used to write the program running on screen.
