It was an interesting design, well-suited to the target audience and presents quite well in person (a co-worker bought two, one donated, the other for his personal use when hiking).

By those qualifications we could very well nominate a Franklin machine for exhibit.

The OLPC had innovative features developed by the designers --- what innovative features which were not copied did the Franklin have?

To turn things back to where we started, can you find one article which criticizes MOMA for including an Apple Macintosh along with its Picasso?

[bigyabai]

For what it's worth, I consider none of the aforementioned three devices to contain any artistic value whatsoever. The Apple II is an excellent computer, but entirely unjustifiable as an art exhibit.

I stand by my original statement that anything can make it's way into MOMA regardless of whether or not it's art.

Your original statement was:

>I mean, if you put a Mac or MacOS in a museum next to Picasso, that would make many people cry.

Yet, MOMA has both a Mac and a Picasso, and you have not provided evidence of anyone feeling negatively about it other than yourself.
