John C. Dvorak more or less wrote what I feel regarding the One Laptop Per Child program.

Do African children need laptops, or do they need food? Well, perhaps they need both in the grand scheme of things but my sense is that right now they need food more than they need a laptop. How much food would $200 buy, I wonder?

While noble, I think we should deal with the problems in impoverished nations sequentially in priority order. Starvation and Political Instability/Genocide are perhaps higher on the list than internet access. Just my opinion.
