Well, when can I start taking scoreboard installation classes then?
I don't think I can move up to moving snow or principalling yet. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JON HUESER Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2008 3:10 PM To: info-tech@aea8.k12.ia.us Subject: re: [info-tech] more standardization Jeremy must have been on the same wavelength as me. He took all of my answers. We have decided to go with the NEC VT695, mostly because I know a few districts (like FD) have had very good luck with them. Since our great January break-in in our HS we are installing 5 of these units. The one thing I really like about the NEC is the ability to remove the filters without having to take the projector apart or take out the bulbs. They just slide in and are easy to take out and clean.

For the most part, they won't be mounted. Is there a specific brand that bulbs are more reasonable on? * Is anyone using wireless connections to projectors successfully? We have a few, but the wireless network (internet) connection is given up when connecting to the wireless proj. Teachers don't like that. * As always, price is a factor, but it seems that most of these manufacturers are making money on the bulbs, warranties and not the projector itself. Layne A.
