...several reasons, this deal may be one of a kind. First, there is the perfect fit of the Journal and Dow Jones brands into the next big venture for Murdoch's News Corp. Having built Fox News into a 24-hour cable news giant, Murdoch is moving into the business news sector, challenging CNBC. The content, expertise and reputation of the Dow Jones properties - including Barron's and the various global Wall Street Journal editions - give him instant muscle for that fight...

Negroponte has his skeptics (including Bill Gates) but is undismayed. "The cynics can be as cynical as they want," he says. "If this makes the industry address low-power, low-cost laptops that can be used in very remote places, that's perfect...
