Hello, everyone.

 

I called my computer guy who warned me about donated laptops...he gets old ones when people are replacing them.  He says that usually the batteries are shot or they are running slowly.  He wondered what had ever happened to the worldwide campaign for One Laptop for Every Child around the world.  I did a wiki on it and se that the program appears to be defunct now.  It's interesting to read the criticism.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Laptop_per_Child

 

I wonder if we shouldn't just buy new ones.  Simple ones.  I will contribute to that effort.  We could also apply for a grant somewhere.  Anyone know of one?
