1. GEODE CPU
2. 256MB DDR memory
3. VGA adapter
4. Parallel port adapter for the printer
5. PS2 style key board port
6. PS2 style mouse port
7. 10/100 Fast Ethernet Port (eth0)

This is the case where Jhai or a VOIP phone company provide either VOIP service remote to the site of the Jhai leaf server. This link would be a virtual QoS network link between the leaf server and a telecom access piece of equipment provided by Jhai some VOIP company. Possible configurations ar

1. IP routing within the Jhai leaf server through the ISP to a Jhai VOIP connection
2. IP routing within the Jhai leaf server to an ISP VOIP connection
3. IP routing within the Jhai leaf server to an independent VOIP connection

This is the case where the local phone company provides either VOIP of POTS service at the site of the Jhai leaf server. This link would be a physical network link between the leaf server and a telecom access piece of equipment provided by Jhai or the local phone company. Possible configurations are:

1. Ethernet to a phone company CMS switch
2. Ethernet to a Jhai Cisco 2600 connected to POTS lines

This is the case where the ISP or and independent company provides VOIP service remote to the site of the Jhai leaf server. This link would be a QoS route between the leaf server and a VOIP provider. Possible configurations are:

1. IP routing within the Jhai leaf server through the ISP to a Jhai VOIP connection
2. IP routing within the Jhai leaf server to an ISP VOIP connection
3. IP routing within the Jhai leaf server to an independent VOIP connection

A stock off the shelf it equpment, may take many physical forms. It has a computer friendly environment.

see Jhai Leaf Server Software packages for a list of the leaf server softtware.

This is the physical node that is the Jhai vilage PC.

This unit contains:

1. Low Power CPU and IO ports
2. Low Power mass storage
3. VOIP interface hardware
4. Power supply monitoring and conditioning hardware

The case is hardened and water resistant and does not require open air venting for heat management. 

see Village PC Software packages for a list of the VPC softtware.

A minimal version of the KDE desktop is installed. The KDE system is set to kiosk mode to prevent any installation of new programs and keep the user environment controllable. When the system boots the single user is logged in a simple desktop is presented on the display.

The phone customer premises equipment (CPE) may be in the following forms:

1. Linksys or other VOIP interface independent of the VPC with a hand set, where the VPC only does routing
2. A PC104 VOIP interface integral to the VPC with a handset
3. A PCICMA VOIP interface integral to the VPC with a handset
4. A USB VOIP interface on the village PC's USB buss
5. A software VOIP package running on the village PC with a USB headst

Here are the current projected local application use cases:

1. To use spread sheets
2. To use word processing.
3. To Print material.
4. To make money. Villagers expect to make money eventually through websites,but these won't be developed on their PCs, but on a market village pc. In the meantime they expect to make money by selling through other post's websites,by talking to people in market towns about price, thus, increasing the price they get for their goods by eliminating middle men AND by understanding the way the market varies. Business people expect to make money by writing proposals and budgets, and by doing simple bookkeeping on the machines.
5. Villagers also expect (which is a human function, except for record-keeping) to make money from the use of the equipment by others. There is a business plan they developed that we shall use, with modification, everywhere. This money is projected to not only cover running costs, but also costs for replacement of the equipment, and wages for the facilitator/operator. Think of a telegraph station.

A trimmed down version of Open Office is installed included word processor, spreadsheet, and mail client

3. A PCICMA VOIP interface integral to the VPC with a handset
4. A USB VOIP interface on the village PC's USB buss
5. A software VOIP package running on the village PC with a USB headst
