I wouldn't characterize the donated computers scheme as 'state-of-the-art audio and visual' exactly, especially if they're donated dell laptops, in which cas they'll be a doorjam in short order. Further, the $100 dollar initiative is more attractive fro the point of view of generating manufacturing activity, possibly in the very countries that may get the computers. There's no reason that both can't exist together. As for the Fischer-Price look discouraging grey markets, in case anyone hadn't noticed, in developing countries looks aren't always high on the list. I guess the people hatching the scheme haven't spent time in the homes of common folk in countries economically up-and-coming. If they're so disconnected from reality that they think that people everywhere respond to the same kind of demographic marketing hit and miss that seems to work in the US, I can't give this initiative much of a chance of hitting its mark.
