25. And who will maintain those thinkpads?

Did you even bother to think about how well something like that could survive in a harsh dusty environment? Those laptops that you speak of are not that rugged. And how will they be recharged? These people can't just plug them in to recharge. And when they fail, then what happens with them? They get discarded. Apparently your solution to our trash problem is to dump it on third world countries and pretend that we are doing them a favor.
