OLPC Searches for a New CEO, Reorganizes - washingtonpost.com: "The One Laptop Per Child Project wants to be as efficient as a commercial organization, and to that end is searching for a new CEO and reorganizing departments, the nonprofit organization's chairman said on Wednesday.

The need for a CEO and improved efficiency stem from OLPC operating 'almost like a terrorist group, doing almost impossible things,' and the need to be managed 'more like Microsoft,' Chairman Nicholas Negroponte said in aninterviewwith BusinessWeek."
