Dear all, As suggest on http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Repair_centers here my posting about my model:
My assumtions (so correct me if I am wrong): - no spare can be ordered yet - different parts fail / get broken. - parts are exchangable My environment: - some soft/hardware hackers - limited space (my living room 2x month) informal tech meeting where reparing can be on the agenda. - some tools (disabsembling, solder, mutlimeters) internet. (no scopes, jtag tools jet) Finance: - getting parts from broken XO's that are send/brought. - shipping costs by senders, receivers. Online documentation registration: - parts wanted/availble - dissambeld / repaired XO like:http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Europe/Repairing Scaling up: Since there hardly XO in europe, it is rather quite now. I see two models: lowlevel (< 5 per cell) week: - create more cells or get community space (University, Schools, ?) - copy above model per town/neigbourhood - train people in skills/knowlegde doing > 20 XO a week create a student training program: - helpdesk - hardware debugging - linux systems network administration kind regards, Marten -- Marten Vijn http://martenvijn.nl http://wifisoft.org http://opencommunitycamp.org _______________________________________________ Grassroots mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/grassroots
