$43,274,134 to spend, and they get among the worst netbooks available to people who are dieing of hunger, HIV/AIDS, civil war. What if this money ($100,000?) was better invested to buy 100 orphans a plane ticket to Canada where they have a better chance of a better future.

Wonderful initiative! What a meaningful experience it must have been for the students to break through the psychological barriers to embracing technology... keep up the great work!

I got an idea... lets spend millions of dollars to give Africans exactly what they need... computers.

Let's forget that most the nation is starving, war torn and in dire need of medicine. But surfing the internet is so much more noble than saving lives...

Why not do something useful for people instead of giving money mongers another avenue for enslavement.

Stoopid.
