This is a big point. Running cost of an ISP or internet connection may be at expense of two or more day's meals! Also are you sure the students CAN receive an internet connection at home? Some areas are not served by ISPs because of credit risk or in some areas there is no connection. (Many Areas of UK have no internet connection faster that old slow baud rates of 1990s due to very long distance copper wires. Where i gre wup it was achoice of starve for two weeks to get a peid or old second hand shoes!

1. I remain on old fashioned phones with only talk and SMS on a PAYG (Pay As You Go) scheme. 2. I use computer based data only via WiFi or Ethernet work, home or Public Wifi. My costs are about GBP £2 per month (say USD3 per month) fro phones (two of them on separate networks so roaming and dead spots are minimiseed) 3. I see no reason for a data phone or visual 'apps' outside my base (home,work or pub) 4.

Also make free update for Vista. Otherwise many seniors on old Vista machines (who would not or could not afford a new computer) are locked eventially in unsafe systems. While I can change a few to Linux most want their known old programs to work. I think Microsoft lost the ball in getting all on updated safe system with this omission.

I use local shops now (in a small village of about 8 to 10 thousand folk) to keep small businesses (and big UK) who are UK tax paying businesses in being. I now buy signifficantly less from Amazon (zero so far this tear of 2015). The are killing local businesses and avoiding paying their fare share of local taxes. Their mama management/remward is not so good, but 'just legal' to avoid prosecution. Also I do not have delivery slot problems, where I or wife had to wait in to receive parcel. (A major point!)
The lady, the woman, The female , the wife, the wifman, "the queen" "the quine", all mean a female person but carry much detail depending on how used or translated as does the common English use of a definite "the" and indefinite "a" article in English which sometimes cannot be translated. For example the phrase "I would buy from that man" has at least two completely different meanings depending on empasis and pauses in speak; so a translater may not translate but replace with the meaning intended in the words of the language into which it is being translated. "I; [pause!] would buy from THAT man!" (very negative, exclamation of rejection of the very idea ) "I would buy from that man" (positive)
"so yes it's (somewhat) punitive."; 25% versus 21%,no it is a little extra, but he also says HMRC will go after any accountant who signs off on avoidance for amounts equal to tax as well as the company avoiding tax so it might get interesting.

Coverage: Very necessary to know actual telcom providers ( both real and 'virtual' who piggy back on an other telecos line) relative to the area she will be in, Albeit most telecos claim 90+% coverage, they do this by piggy backing (roaming charges) on other networks and operation is very limited in mountainous regions. Example: Within my areas near Manchester in England and in Galoway in southern Scotland, signal strengths vary widely.
