Masi Oka supporting One Laptop Per Child

A new reason for Hiro to travel the world

Heroes star Masi Oka will be serving as global ambassador for the non-profit One Laptop Per Child initiative headed up by MIT Media Lab's Nicholas Negroponte, which has set out to design, manufacture and distribute laptops to developing countries for under $100 each.

The Brown University Math/Computer Science grad is a dual threat in the digital space, known not only as an actor but also as a SFX guru with George Lucas' Industrial Light & Magic.
