[info-tech] Photoshop Alternative
The Rabiner Treatment Center is part of our school district and we work with them. They have about 70 - 100 students and their own teachers. They need about 30 licenses of Photoshop. We have a building license for CS3 but that seems overkill for their building. What is a good alternative for Photoshop. Also, is there an alternative to Acrobat. Thanks.

RE: [info-tech] Photoshop Alternative
Not sure if you need to go for the full-blown feature set or not, but we load paint.net on our standard image, which gives you a lot of the Photoshop options.

RE: [info-tech] IPODS
We have a few Nanos that have been given out to our TAG and Music programs. Haven't heard of any problems, but I cannot confirm their regular use either. Some of those Nano's have the Belkin recorder that enables them to create their podcasts. Seems to work pretty slick. We had an extra set so we have given it to a Special Ed room for notes and things so the students can record them. I haven't heard any good or bad things.

RE: [info-tech] IPODS
Keep in mind that if you buy the new Nano you'll also be buying a video camera and audio recorder at the same time (no extra hardware required).

Re: [info-tech] IPODS
We have nanos. Beginning to really start using these this year. As well as setting up listening centers in classrooms with them. (Belkin headphone splitters -- can connect 5 headsets to one iPod -- really nice!) Also--zamzar.com -- will convert text into MP3 files for you (tests, worksheets) without having to record it yourself. Keep in mind it does have the computer voice, though.

Re: [info-tech] IPODS
Touches have the flexibility of applications, which I like, but the cameras in the Nanos, make them interesting. I think we will end up with some of both. Karl H.
