If you give kids in the latter laptops they will sell them for drug money, just as they sell their bodies, a well-known trade in that city. Villa Cardal is just a small town. If some multinational corp wants to experiment on it, to their benefit, I see no problem.<BR/><BR/>-Marshall Lentiniuresecahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05139626643537706342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408685387934692357.post-29659102987606752612007-05-17T23:33:00.000-03:002007-05-17T23:33:00.000-03:00Que bueno que en Uruguay se piense en la educacion...Que bueno que en Uruguay se piense en la educacion informatica en un tema de necesidad.<BR/>Espero que otros paises de LatinoAmerica sigan el ejemplo.<BR/>Sobre la critica de que habiendo pobres que no tiene para comer, este proyecto no les va a beneficiar. Efectivamente este proyecto debe estar dirigido a gente que teniendo posibilidades de alimentarse y educarse normalmente, no tiene la posibilidad de adquirir una computadora o conectarse a la internet. Es un proyecto que le abrira nuevas posibilidades a una parte de la poblacion que en otro caso estaria relegada a una labor de menor habilidad y pago.<BR/><BR/>Desde Japon, FelicitacionesTuquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305201969569364814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408685387934692357.post-88704182738149430062007-05-15T12:09:00.000-03:002007-05-15T12:09:00.000-03:00Thank you for posting in English, sir.

Here you constantly see little children on the streets begging for money, and the money is NEVER used for food, instead they buy the deadly drugs brewed by poor people. This drug is corrupting uruguay. It once was a great country, but now all of the poor people take this drug and it has seriously affected crime rates. Giving these kids labtops will either Cause them to get robbed which is very usual in poor neighborhoods or make them sell it for a little extra cash. What you guys need to do is set up stands where people can get food. Kind of like soup kitchens which i do not belive they have any here. Sorry to be so cruel but sadly its the truth, when bush came here the goverment tried to make the city look better by blocking off the bad parts of the city, they tried cleaning the graffiti and even stooping down as low as giving the poor people on the roads some money to get off the roads. I know that to be true becasue i have a friend who works on a main road where bush passed through, he told me some government people gave him a few pesos to just disapear for a few days.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12881125512710577810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408685387934692357.post-17396208795065684722007-05-13T02:39:00.000-03:002007-05-13T02:39:00.000-03:00hola si necesitas ayuda con traduccion yo te puedo...hola si necesitas ayuda con traduccion yo te puedo colaborar, y que buen aporte;)mjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17322747026798976613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408685387934692357.post-30361679840274981122007-05-12T22:31:00.000-03:002007-05-12T22:31:00.000-03:00Felicitaciones a Uruguay por haber emprendido y ah...Felicitaciones a Uruguay por haber emprendido y ahora estar llevando a cabo este proyecto. <BR/><BR/>Y me alegro que la plataforma informatica del OLPC sea software abierto y en particular Linux, sin ninguna vinculacion a grandes empresas informaticas. Eso de por si ya es todo un ejemplo para el niño del resultado que es posible lograr trabajando solidariamente y en comunidad, solamente con el objetivo de que las cosas funcionen y alguien las pueda usar, dejando los beneficios economicos en segundo ( o ultimo! ) lugar. <BR/><BR/>Un abrazo desde Cordoba-Argentina.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05589668415957028372noreply@blogger.com
