Hi,
A few years ago we sent six computers over to Bali. Thanks to Air Paradise the shipping costs were minimal but it took months and a reasonable size "donation" to get them through Customs even with help from the Indonesian Embassy here.
I suppose their reasoning is fairly sound as they don't want Bali to become a dumping ground for older technology. (BUT the kids don't know that)
Now we take a laptop each and no one seems interested, however, as the airlines become more and more cost driven I believe these will very soon be included in luggage weight. Any excess laptops now get sold and the money goes towards a visit to Rimo and new Desktops.
