I've never understood idea that computers will help education. Great education has been happening for thousands of years; obviously computers are unnecessary for good education. Personally, I feel like the three R's is a much more effective educational idea than the computers in the classroom idea. You will ultimately have to teach the R's, it's never been clear to me how computers would help teach them.
