Mike, this sounds very similar to one of the exercises I run in training
sessions to support the integrated information skills programme I have
developed for schools in the UK. If you (or anyone else) would like more
information on this, please contact me on my personal e-mail address.

Cheers.

Subject: Tech:  add keyboards to existing...

Hello,

I am locating some older Tandy computers in the Media Center to be
dedicated to word processing for students.  However, I must use an
existing table.  Is there a company I could order the sliding tray for
the keyboards (4) that could be added to this table?  I would appreciate
company names, phone numbers, fax, prices,etc.  Thanks in advance,
