If we want to install it in Mumbai or in other parts of India, what is the investment required.
AFAIK The Investment of ZYXWARE friends was Volunteering on Software Design & Building Kiosk + painting it + around 25K for Hardware .

I personally feel, it is good if we get some banks to supporting the project to install Freedom Toaster in IT Parks & Colleges with a Debit/Credit card payment facility. Free Software is anyway not Free Meal

-- Any responsible politician should be encouraging a home grown Free Software industry because it creates the basis for future jobs. Learning Windows is like learning to eat every meal at McDonalds.

Today, at the FSUG Thrissur event, there was very good demand for GNU/Linux CD's - many people came asking for multiple distro's and the volunteers were kept busy burning DVD's. I think people have a genuine problem getting hold of GNU/Linux CD's/DVD's - and efforts like the Freedom toaster may help, if scaled up to the proper extend.

I will talk to have one in our college provided some body takes care of demonstrating the replacement softwares ( could be charged for that ) for what ever the proprietary softwares we have on our campus ( may be asking too much - but i feel until and unless we do not address the need it would take lot of time otherwise .
