I am looking at getting netbooks instead of laptops as I can get two
for the price of a laptop.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi all. This is OT, but I just wanted to air this. If the thread
develops, we can move it to the OffTopic list.
I wanted to get people's ideas about the money we are being given to
get us to a 1:2 computer/student ratio.
Yesterday I found we were entitled to apply for funding for 257
computers, which is wonderful except for the fact that we have nowhere
to put them.
I could perhaps use about 45 of them, but 257? Not unless we also get
funding for new buildings, cabling, tech support, software licences etc.
If we applied for the maximum amount of money we are entitled to, the
only only option would be for use to stack the computers five-deep in
shipping containers on the oval.
At $1000 per PC (assuming about $650 for the hardware the the rest for
associated expenses) I can't see it working. And we can't just use
the money to replace existing computers - we have to add to the
existing fleet.
It's starting to look like a white elephant: the gift you'd give to
someone you really didn't like :-)
Is anyone else in the same boat?
Cheers
Mark
