I wonder if the Church could help with these laptops. If a religious
organization were to purchase some and hand them out I wonder if they
would be more likely to get to their intended destinations with
appropriate training. Are they selling these only to governmental
organizations or have they approached charitable ones as well?

Shawn, you remind me of an excellent quote from a Russian at Slashdot. He
says back in the olden days the only computers they could get in Russia were
gifts from the American People, and they didn't always come with good
documentation or training, and they were left to their wits. Some of them
learned programming via source code that was included with some programs,
even knowing little English. Overall, he says they would have been at a
great loss if somebody had decided not to send the computers because there
was no budget for training and maintenance.
Sometimes you just gotta have a little faith and do the right thing, and
some kids somwhere will be blessed.
