Major telcom carriers announced that they'll be providing broadband access to lower-income US residents for less than $10 per month; coupled with refurbished PC's at $150 and you're talking about a very generous and ambitious plan!
But what does this mean to you if you're not in that bracket? Well, the opposite end of the coin - as the one of the articles on the subject points out (http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9221686/Low_income_families_offered_cheap_broadband_PCs), less than 50% of most low-income families have broadband so any increase in that market (and thus eyes viewing it targeted products and services) is likely to be astronomical and immediate!
