I quote froma recently received email from a freind of a freind working for VSO in Uganda:
Quote-
/I am tutoring introductory computers and am in urgent need of resources. Danny will be teaching IT next term since some used computers were recently donated. It's possible that the college will have an internet connection early next year as well.
/

/The vast majority of staff and students have had little or no exposure to computers. All are very keen to learn! The computers all have Windows 98 installed so newer books are not desired. The computers have CD, floppy drives, and USB ports.

The most helpful books:/

   * /Basic books such as in the Dummies/Idiots series or any primary
     school level book. /
   * /MS Word /
   * /How to use the Internet. /
   * /Windows 98 /
   * /CD-ROMs for learning computers /
   * /Learning to type programs /
   * /Mouse pads/

/Many copies are needed as there are about 500 staff and students here. We currently have about 20 computers.

Now I know there's lots of books out there, but I wonder if they know about Open Office?
It could solve a lot of their problems.

Anyone any ideas how we could helpe solve it?
