* At the end of 2006', there are 335 colleges(or universities), 3,255,745 students,  19,322 courses, 38,456 office workers and  67,211 professors(or instructors). We estimate there should be an extra OLPC per 100 citizens. So, we need (3,255,745 x 101% = ) about 3,510,000 [[Type III OLPC]](itizen)s at minimum and 110,000 [[Type III OLPC]]s for instructors/office workers.
* As we expect One Server per Class, we need 80,000 servers. However, there are some courses whose students are less than 100, a little more servers will be needed. 
* Estimated budget:  '''480,300,000''' dollars at least.
** 456,300,000 (=3,510,000x$130) dollars for [[Type III OLPC]](itizen)s ($130 per unit).
** 24,000,000 (=80,000x$300) dollars for School Servers ($300 per unit). See [[School Servers for Korean Schools]].
