<div dir="ltr">Thanks Mark, this is part of the reason we are looking to target the funding towards SunRay terminals, MacBook laptops and Ultraportables. Our thinking is that we continue our lease program to fund for our current desktop hardware (setting up just one new lab) and grind the rest into the ground through years of service into the distant future with little need for new cabling .. just a few tubs, trolleys and back of room tables.<br>
<br>Regards Roland<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/9/3 Mark Kelly <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kel@mckinnonsc.vic.edu.au">kel@mckinnonsc.vic.edu.au</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
For those who lease, and plan to apply for Rudd money, be aware that we CANNOT lease with Rudd money. The state education dept has forbidden it.<br>
