<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello OLPC Philippines,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am a retired bank employee in Sydney Australia, I
am of Filipino origin.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have heard about OLPC on television and I
immediately thought that OLPC could make my ex-boss's dreams come
true.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The town mayor of Lubang Mindoro is my former boss
in the National Computer Center (NCC) in Camp Aguinaldo , Quezon
City,</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> Col. Juan Sanchez.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Being a technology person, Col Sanchez is
embarking on an IT Program for the school children of Lubang, and he had asked
helped from us former employees.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some former NCC employees from Canada, US and the
Philippines are coming over to Sydney for a reunion in September 2009. I
would like to present in the reunion the OLPC scheme, as one of our community
service program in the Philippines.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have gone through the OLPC site and I have seen
the webpage for donation, but I would like the donation to be treated as a
project, not a casual donation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This could be one of your pilots, if not the pilot
pilot.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Could you please clarify for me what the give a
laptop scheme is (donate 1 , get 1). This is a bit confusing. Do we
pay $199 for one laptop, then we get one free?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I saw one page where it said $399 for a
pair.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>What is your view on the green laptop, does it work like a 'proper'
computer. Can a child be comfortable to shift from the green laptop to a
'real' laptop?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Looking forward to your early reply.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
