Naaah. . .

There's only enough money in the budget for software upgrades and new books this year. I'm not really all that impressed with the eMac anyway. We usually try to get towers on all our desks because of expandability.

(Hey, cool! 100 posts. Don't we humans just love big round numbers?)

our computers are upgraded 386's, AMD K6's (i think) and they BARELY run Microsoft Office on Windows 95

our high school has some pretty new Systemax Pentium 4 PC's running Windows 98 (most likely... our school freaks out on upgrades... that's why they don't do alot)

i really want our tech lab to buy a PowerMac G4 since they're considering a Video Editing PC.... but they'll probably get a stupid dell...

our administration building just got a wireless network installed for all their new dell laptops....

and our english class (yes... english) has a wireless network for their IBM laptops...




I WANT TO SEE SOME eMACS HERE!!!!!!!!

eBolag.... while it seems like a comprehensive plan, I still think it might be a bit better to have the graphics classes earlier in the curriculum... reason being that I certainly know that when I was in eighth grade we were doing Photoshop with our web design, etc.... even a bit of very minor programming. They are teaching real programming languages such as Java and C++ now, in 10th grade, and in my 9th grade there are people taking Advanced Web Design, so... you might be able to push the curriculum a bit further

I'd fit in some programming. I know that it is much easier to learn in a course and I think people would like that. If people are serious in taking computers they don't want to be taking just html in their last year. Right now we are doing programming in computers, but I can't take it next year unfortunately.

I think that it would be sad if people went through a high-school computers curriculum without programming at all.
