Well you were kinda happy as a child with the "power" your computer had weren't you?
To me it is a noble effort, but since most of the people have lost touch to the real world, i think i will say this: wake up people, there are families that live in places you wouldn't even drive through, with less money in a month that you make in a day... This project is about giving them a tool (teach them to fish instead of giving the fish to them) not having them playing WoW or Halo. The solution to some of the problems they face: segregation and the digital divide (or digital breach, i don't know how it translates) gets solved by working with the communities where they live, empowering them by giving tools that can make a difference.
