<HTML><BODY>Is there any proof that sugar is used everyday by nearly 3 million children at stated on the website? My research from 2 countries which have purchased over 100,000 laptops has indicated that due to non-deliver, breakage, and disuse, the term 'used daily by 3 million children' is overstating use by an order of magnitude.<br><br>Optimism can be valuable. Deceit, even if you mean well, is not appropriate when dealing with some of the worlds most needy populations. <br><br>Dan<br><br><br>Friday, April 10, 2015 5:49 PM -03:00 from Gonzalo Odiard <godiard@sugarlabs.org>:<br>
