do starving, uneducated children need laptops?

As I remember, michelle jackson wanted to create a "Neverland" in Africa so that the kids there could ride on a ferris wheel.

Brilliance.

Long ago, I came to the conclusion that many Americans have NO idea what a horror a third world country actually is. You have to LIVE there for a year or so to get the full impact. Jetting in, staying in hotels and getting soundbites and pictures doesn't even begin to get the point across. If Negroponte actually had to live in one of these crapholes, drink the water and eat the food, for a year or two he wouldn't be worried about laptops for children. He would be sending AK-47's and ammo.......
