Sure, it's a nice gesture, but I'm wondering how they will solve the electricity problem in Ghana with desktop computers?

Everyone keeps pointing out electricity but first off, not all of Ghana is suffering from a power shortage. Secondly, even if they can have it on one hour a day it's better than what came before.
I think the parent meant why desktop computers instead of laptops.
Right. Sorry, I thought it was more obvious.

My friends who live in Ghana go days without being able to access the Internet. It's actually a big problem.
