    I'm talking about the situation _here_ (read my post that you quoted).
    It's a sad situation.  Politicians here have seen too many wasted-money 
cases, like the language lab in the local HS that ended up unused and then 
dismantled on the floor, to want to spend money on mass PC purchases...in 
spite of the excellent possibilities.
