UK charity ships Internet cafe in a box | THINQ.co.uk: "UK charity Computer Aid International today unveiled a solar-powered Internet caf�in a box, designed to bring the web to remote villagers in Africa.
The box in question is a standard shipping container kitted out with a Pentium 4 PC and enough NComputing netbooks for ten users, all powered by a bank of solar panels on the roof. It's the second such unit the charity has produced, and was shown off in London today before being sent to its eventual destination in Kenya."
