There was a typo in my message. The word "even" should have read "ever." I love your instant defensive whining, however, as well as your misattribution of the other email. So far, you're the only proven general-purpose tool here. > As for your issue with suppliers of computing resources, there are > political dynamics in place around me that render the question moot. > Plus, I don't want to get involved in conventional teaching (C++, > Java, Windows, etc.) and that closes quite a few doors. This is frankly bizarre, since IAEP and OLPC aren't in the business of peddling C++, Java, or Windows. I apologize for misinterpreting your message as anything but another attempt to climb to some rhetorical moral high ground; I thought you were interested in using computers to further education in underserved areas. I withdraw my interest, and apologize for attempting to point out relevant efforts in the areas you claim to espouse. My bad. Carry on.
