hi all!
I was thinking to pose some good questions that occured to me and that might be materialized in the future.
1.Lets build a bamboo microsope.
In the pursuit of taking science to villages,we try to make a bamboo low cost mircoscope.
The only costly thing in it will be the lenses.
The microscope tube as well as the mechanism all will be made up of bamboo,since it is locally available,rough and tough,prevents entry of external light.
The problem is to design the mircoscope's mechanism.
Firstly,it must be able to move the main tube up and down,
next,it must be able to move the lens up and down.Simply put,both coarse and fine adjustments.
also how to attach the lenses with the rim of the bamboo tube.
How will you do it?
2.This is the original idea(i think) of Mr PS Ghose,of National Bal Bhawan.
Why to go on buying a laptop,when you can build it?
I mean,since desktops are now available at about 15000,so why not assemble our desktop on to a small atteche case?(say vip case)
The heating would be one big problem and the bag must be able to close on completion of work.
We shall need to drill out holes of the sides to provide the connection.
It shouldn't have its own power suppy,thats ok.
but it must have its own monitor.and keyboard and mouse and possibly speakers.
then we shall need to provide it with adequate protection from elements.The hard disk needs to be cushioned.
think on it.and gimme an ingenious solution.be descriptive and then lets matertialize.
3.This one is quite funny and is all bout lateral thinking.
What can you hold only with oyu right hand?
Don't answer if oyu already know.

Wait till 8 march
Not enough brain cells free to think bout anything till then.

the above link is answer to your laptop problem.
I am not buying your idea of bamboo microscope...rather it would be much easy to produce a PVC tube microscope, which would have higher durability, I saw one such at science exhibition.
Now you need not wait till march, and can go on make your laptop your self. But you wont make a healthy laptop for 15000, take my words, it would at least take some 25k to 30k to make a XP ready pc. You can certainly make one with PIII with 15k but wont be able to use for major purpose. But if you want a laptop to surf net and do some minor word processing then you an buy on OLPC laptop i.e., sub 100$ laptop, and then add 20GB external USB hard drive to it, which will cost some 2k. SO you will have one nice little laptop which will play your music, and would be handy for some data processing for some 7k. What say.
