There's all probability that a vast majority of these laptops will end up
being used for totally unrelated purposes - games, music, movies, and porn.
Most likely they will be resold. Imagine my surprise when I saw TN
govt-supplied tv set at a relative's place in Hyderabad. When I asked
him about it, he said something like, "oh, I went to TN on an
assignment, and somebody who works on the (construction) site sold it to
me for 2k". I guess that's the fate of most PDS-supplied rations too.
Vamsee.
