The OLPC display is 200DPI; therefore one point—1/72 inch—is just less than 3 pixels (2.78 pixels). We are settling on a default font size of 7pts. for the Sugar UI (using [http://www.icewalkers.com/rpm/dejavu-lgc-fonts/fedora-core-6/download/dejavu-lgc-fonts-1679.html DejaVu LGS Sans]).  It is quite legible.  This translates to a font size of approximately 19.45 pt in Adobe Illustrator, which bases its units on the traditional 72DPI display.  For the purposes of preparing activity GUI mockups, you must always remember to make the conversion to the laptops' display resolution by multiplying by a constant factor of 0.36.
