[LM_NET] SMARTBOARDS: A PILE OF JUNK

["DiGregorio, David" <ddigregorio@TENAFLY.K12.NJ.US>]

I am not a fan of Smartboards since there are many other more elegant
solutions for classroom presentation / interaction.  I see these units
as cumbersome and distracting.   They will surely find their way
(quicker than usual) to the school dumpster as new technologies sweep
them aside.  I would be very cautious if you're considering  purchasing
them.  Do not be fooled by their aggressive marketing schemes.   They
are really nothing more than a pile of junk!
