Most Mac laptops are capable of producing 2 separate video signals.

The OLPC is clearly NOT an IBM compatible PC even though it does currently use an x86 CPU, because it has many features which take it beyond plain PCs. And the designers reserve the right to change to a non-x86 CPU in the future if it makes sense. As one of the team said recently, AMD will have to earn our business. The goal is not to make another IBM compatible but to make a portable personal computer that a child can use as a core tool of their elementary education. See similar questions...
