Verdict. The entrepreneurs are targeting a niche market. If (as a parent) you don't fit the bill, don't go about yapping.

Sounds futuristic to us who used to sit in classes that were nowhere near this "computer labs" in a school in Karen. We! ati Ipad, Laptop na Wi-Fi. Jameni hata hawa walimu hawajali masilahi ya watoto- what about the kids getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from prolonged typing on their laptop's keyboards?

Some of the predisposing factors include: diabetes, obesity, pregnancy, hypothyroidism, and heavy manual work or work with vibrating tools but not lighter work even if repetitive

The mouse will do the work.

Sometimes back the so called lifestyle diseases were only found amongst the rich but have now found there way down and they affect even the not so rich. My prediction is that in the not so far future we will have some new 'posh' diseases being diagnosed here and which would mostly affect the rich kids in "computer labs" somewhere in some hi-tech schools in Kenya- "diseases" like LAPTOP-ITIS.

FYI, the article in USA Today is not peer-reviewed.

Unless you want to spread false notions, come back with a peer-reviewed source.

This is such an oxymoron of life.

A developing country with extremely expensive elementary schools. Meanwhile, some of the best economies and countries in Europe have very HIGH QUALITY and FREE education to University level, countries such as Norway, Germany and Denmark. These are countries where world leading companies have been created and continue to be created.

So paying higher price of education does not necessarily mean you have a guaranteed successful life, it may earn you social status though :) but that's about it.
