Dear All,
There seems to be some confusion still regarding the situation at
Catur PS in the Bangli district of Bali.
We (my wife, cousin and I ) installed 10 MacIntosh 580 computers at
the school in October. They were transported to Bali in a seatainer
going to Bali for the John Fawcett Foundation. They are ready to run
with software (OS 7 something), regular AppleWorks software and games
already loaded. They are not configured to access the internet and
are not networked. A laser printer and another Mac are to be sent
soon to make up a printing station for transfer of files by floppy
disk from the other Macs.
Power supply is the main problem as the makeshift power to the school
is both low on voltage and unreliable. The installation of permanent
power to the school has been costed at around A$220. The Bangli
District Government is broke and the installation may take quite some
time considering that fact. The alternative is that we raise a bit
more money to add to Mac's collection from the BBQ and get the ball
rolling that way.
If that can be agreed to, then I will contact the Foundation and
suggest they get things rolling.
At this stage I think the 10 computers are very adequate for this
small school and, any non Mac Techie may be confused with different
mixes of models and operation systems.
I hope I have explained this adequately,
regards
Kevin
