What would be neat is if there was a power supply that you could replace

a manufacture that supplies one? I'd hat

I would like to thank everyone who has participated on this mailing list
over the past several days. It feels like we are turning a corner.
Lately, the threads have shifted towards people asking about and explaining
how they are adapting what is available to meet their situation.

Perhaps another avenue to explore could be SSHD's (a hybrid of SSDs and
HDD's). They would cost significantly less than an SSD (a 500GB SSHD
retails $80), yet meager on power consumption about 2.5-3W better than an
HDD, 1-1.5W worse than an SSD.

Well, in Bhagmalpur,
Indeed, some of Haitian schools have Internet and some don't: Braddock's
Internet-in-a-Box team has made a world of difference.
So in the end, the many Haitian schools I speak with are generally all are
interesting in keeping their Digital Libraries open (i.e. accessible, and
turned on) for kids/m
Hi,
I assume this situation is also solar-powered. What is the range over
which the school server has to be accessible? Do you wire the APs back
to the central location or provide solar power directly to each?
I fully agree that the school server needs its own power in a solar
environment. A
Hi, Adam
The model I have been pursuing is that the library contents are checked
out by the child - i.e. copied to the Journal on the XO. There is no
