[Imc-africa] equipment needs for wsf convergence imc

[sphinx]

Hi again Kipp! I dropped you a line yesterday about the kind of access point
antenna you think we?ll need for the Convergence IMC Center.

We do need Computers, printers, projectors, minidisk players, tape recorders,
tapes etc.
The idea has been to focus more on collecting equipment both used and new from
the global north and around the world that could be left with the Kenyan
collective for use after we are done with the WSF. Surely, folks who do not
want to carry their laptops to Nairobi for the event will surely be able to
link-up to rent machines for use while there are in Nairobi but the direction
as far as equipment are concerned has been more focus on collection for onward
passing over to the Nairobi collective.

Madhava, right now we do not have any equipmentt line-up yet fot use. 
But we are
looking forward to buying parts for the LowPowered FM Radio in the days ahead
and ofcourse collecting the aobe list of equipment and more.
