although now long forgotten as a historical curio of 2000s web idealism, the OLPC "One Laptop Per Child" project attempted to produce a low-cost, high-reliability laptop suitable for kids in low-income environments.
one of the upshots of the program was that SimCity was open-sourced for the OLPC XO-1 computer, and it was included on every machine. this little article by don hopkins does a great job of tracing its history through Sun Microsystems.
