[Olpc-philippines] XO Laptops for an NGO project

[Allan E. Registos]

Good day to all:

Anyone can provide us with information regarding the XO pilot program or
related topics?? We are an NGO that giving students free research on the
Internet. We gave them free access on Wifi or LAN internet and also a free
mini-library. But before that, they need to attend a seminar, then become a
member, then they will become full-time members and are free to use the
facilities we have. The problem we have is we are lacking of computers, we
only have very few units working and still have to re-configure those old
Pentium II with 128MB computers but again, very few units considering that
we now have more than 100 members all with some college students. Thinking
about the goal of OLPC is also related to our goal, learning. Knowing that
only the government can bulk-purchase these XOs, is there any alternative we
can do to have the XO be demonstrated in our organization and especially to
the students?

With much thanks,,,,
Allan

PS. we are located in Davao.
