Somes schools will voluntarily affiliate with NGOs trafficing in laptops by the palette, and the NGOs won't mind if they see the hardware going to intelligent uses. So it's not an adversarial relationship with the schools in all necks of the woods. But it is in some. We live in a diverse world. What's going on in the so-called Empire State on the Atlantic side of North America is one National Geographic story among many. I don't set my own personal watch by the New York Times, that much is certain.
