“The world will only need five
computers” IBM Chairman Thomas J. Watson
– maybe we laughed too soon!
• Sun Microsystems Chief Technology Officer
Greg Papadopoulos thinks the idea will pan out
eventually.
• "The world needs only five computers,"
Papadopoulos said on his blog. He then listed
seven--Google, eBay, Amazon.com, Microsoft,
Yahoo, Salesforce.com, and what he called the
Great Computer of China - Stephen Shankland CNET

What does this mean for us
• - all schools get network upgrades – within
6 years
• - all schools are on fibre - within 6 years
• - all schools are on the NEN – we hope!

communications, significant collaborations
exciting educational resources and
possibilities.

So, how can these “Broadband
in schools initiatives” help?
• Providing the access needed to participate
• Addressing the poor state of school networks
• Boosting ICT capacity
• Offering effective and affordable resources and
services
• Challenging the “stand-alone” weakness of
Tomorrow’s Schools - building capacity through
collaboration
