Comments on: Baltimore proposes 'inclusive' Wi-Fi plan

Similar to an effort in Philadelphia, Baltimore's draft plan focuses on bringing Internet to low-income families.

One major drawback

People living in low rent public housing projects are really not inclined to use computers in the first place. Now if a bank loans them money to buy a low cost computer, I'm sure that most of them will use the money to buy drugs and then never pay back the loan. Those that do buy a computer with the loan will soon find out that have no idea how to use the thing so it will most probably wind up in a pawn shop and the money will be used to buy drugs.

sad but probably true

more true than the negatives raised around one pc per child. then again, why not extend the $100 pc to local audiences. no crank needed.

What about those of us in Baltimore County?

I personally live in Pikesville, MD. An area of Baltimore County and very close to the city. As a matter of fact I share my zip code with a part of the city. I would like to know whether those of us in Baltimore County will see these Wi-Fi networks or not?
