No he doesn't. In an essay on OLPC [1] he mentions that he's currently
using an XO as his laptop because it has a free BIOS, but that he's
disabled the wireless chip because it requires non-free firmware. I
assume nothing's changed since he wrote that article in April.

Oh, and hello everyone. I've been on the list for a few months, but this
is the first time I've posted. I'm a first-year student at UC and am in
the Free Culture Club, although haven't been to any meetings for quite a
while.
