[Olpc-za] Need Tech Support for XOs in KZN

[David Robert Lewis]

Medialternatives, Voices from the Global South, is an online blog that I
post to, currently at http://davidrobertlewis.wordpress.com

Sorry for being so low-tech, but I am still in the process of compiling
my drivers for my webcam and headphone, so don't have skype up and
running as yet. Please supply respond to the questions as if this were a
online conversation, which I guess it is. Thank you for being there for
the kids and for supporting the XO distribution in SA.

David.
