Re: [info-tech] mounting projector debate rages on

[Brad Kruse]

We bought three Samsung 40" LCD TVs from CDWG this summer and placed them on a cart along with a 15' VGA cable and HDMI DVD player.  Less than $1,100 for everything.  Easy to setup and can be moved easily.  They are crystal clear and can be seen from the back of a normal sized classroom.  We are going to talk about what to do in the future later this fall with input from the teachers that have had mounted projectors, projectors on their cart, and the LCD solution.  We will then decide whether to go with Smartboards or one of the other options for all classrooms needing projection for the next year.   Manson Northwest Webster-Home of the Cougars!

At one time, somebody mentioned they were switching to LCD's instead of projectors. If anybody has purchased LCD's for the classroom, I have a few questions. What size is appropriate for a 25 student classroom? What vendor are you using (IEC?) Is mounting the TV an additional cost?   Thanks!       Layne A. Henn     712.224.7423
