I choose to point you all to a site called Infoxchange, which aims to make technology available for all.

http://www.infoxchange.net.au/

If you're feeling inspired to investigate a little digital philanthropy, their "technology for social justice" message might inspire?

A few years ago, I was involved in a project that accepted a large donation of 2 year old PCs from a giant Melbourne law firm, refurbished them with the help of some of Mission Australia's long term unemployed, and distributed them, along with some lessons in how to get online and a super cheap internet connection to Melbourne families who otherwise couldn't afford computers.

Sorry for the thread hijack, but a brilliant cause - and relevant to putting "technology for all" into practise.
