			=== Existing Similar Information ===

			Tony Anderson wrote in "Re: [IAEP] IAEP Digest, Vol 97, Issue 75": In Rwanda, we discovered that few homes had electricity. This would mean laptops taken home would be returned with empty batteries. The school is set up to charge the laptops in charging racks. Charging them in class time would mean running power strips all over the floor of the classroom potentially endangering students and the laptops (dragged to the floor). In Nepal, wear and tear on the XOs proved too expensive so laptops now stay in the school. After school opportunities are a good alternative, except in many schools students walk several miles to and from school. This means they can not stay back for after school activities. In schools with two shifts there would lots of time for 'before' or 'after' school activities. However, the schools do not have classroom space beyond that for the active classes. Every deployment I have encountered is different, information about them would be invaluable and would give us an opportunity to provide more effective support. I think the first priority is to find the deployments and identify a contact who could provide us with good current information.
