Good initiative. But they need to maintain the momentum. A lot of good initiatives fail in third world nations as people loose interest after some time. Also I have noticed that at many places computers are provided but there is no one to teach!

You are correct. Absence of qualified teachers has made computer education in many government schools in India almost useless.

Is this great or is this great! I hope they also factor in maintenance and upkeep of the units, as this is often forgotten in projects like this.
