Usage>Bridging the digital divide in school system

Schools throughout the world are faced with new challenges as computer skills become increasingly important in the digital age. Affordable access to computing technology has become a priority for many school administrators. With the tight budget they’ve considered refurbished (used) computers, but second handed computers do not do justice to the budget, Used computers have already reached a point where it is no longer cost-effective for an school to maintain the equipment, and by deploying such equipment in a poor school, where little technical expertise is available, one can expect break-downs, delays, and lack of funding to repair, all of which lead to disillusionment with the use of technology.
