Kids are simply thankful that they have a school around.. the grown-ups
envy as they had to go out of the town for higher (secondary) education.
The town (Gokul near Mathura) is a religious place and has only one
trainer (in the school), who is not aware of Linux. The town has no
browsing center though I could be wrong..
