This is a great deal that HP is sponsoring. It is a wonderful way for a grass roots organization to get their technology where it is needed most.

I work with two groups who can desparately need it.

1) Must Ministries – a homeless shelter in Marietta,GA. Along with the admin of the over 200 people it serves, it is a fantastic experience to train some people on how to use the technology.

2) I teach a short course at Wheeler High School in Marietta preparing students (about 75 of the best) on how to deal with entrance exams, AP tests, essays, etc. for getting into college. I have received MANY complimentary notes on how I have helped. Better than 99% go onto college. Hunter Williams will be getting some of my equipment. He was not only fully engaged in all the discussions, but is also pursuing an engineering degree.

I’m curious about the touch screen. I would love to give most of this package to my neighbor as a thank you for all his family has done for me.
