I guess there is a criterion for disbursing these laptops. My assumption is, this initiative is a pilot project. My greatest concern is how will the monitoring of the use of the machines be done? On 29/07/2009, Rad! <conradakunga@gmail.com> wrote:
Also, given that some Kenyans have demonstrated no compunction in stealing ARV money or supplying chalk to Nairobi Water, what measures are being put in place to prevent fraud in this initiative? I can already see ghost consumers buying ghost laptops en masse and government footing actual bills

My essential question is are there a million people who already have the skills to be able to utilize the laptops? And are these the people we are targeting? Will the laptops come with training software? In order for the promotion to be beneficial it must lead to increased incomes for the users, which requires skills.
Does anyone know the answers to these questions?
