"Tom King, Secretary for the project agreed. "This model seems to be working well. We are beginning to talk with East and South Austin Community Centers about their needs and they are substantial" said King.

"Various educational software, basic Internet programs and OpenOffice Suite are all placed on the machines for the students to have access to. Although the equipment will benefit the family of the students as a whole the computer actually belongs to the students. Parents are encouraged to supervise computer usage and be involved while not monopolizing the system. Computers are guaranteed to be pornography, virus and advertising-free when given to the students."
