Oh really now?
And just what do I need help with? YOU were the one from the previous article that started the whole 'GOD' thing by telling us we needed to give them this so that they could find God. They don't need to find God. They need food, better shelter, educational tools. Which,yes, these laptops could give them in a sense. But my main point is that in order for them to learn anything (and I am referring to third world countries. I haven't seen any of the maps on this so I am going off of an assumption, sorry) they first have to not be dying of starvation, thirst, and disease first. I am in no way against giving them this technology or helping them out. This CAN be a good thing. But we can't just presume this is what they need or want, good idea or not. You can pave a road with all the good intentions that you can but that may not accomplish the goal in the end.
