Follow Up, St. Charles School
Hi folks,
I just wanted to let you know that as a result of a request for Macs for my daughter's school, the Mac community came through with about 50 computers! The bulk of them are IIcis and IIcxs, though one gentleman called up and asked if we could use a Power Mac with 64 megs of RAM (of course not!). As of this time, we are short of external CD-ROMS, monitors, video cables, and mice.
If you are able to help out with any of these items, please send them to:
St. Charles School
8 Myrtle Street
Woburn, MA 01801
As a result of all these wonderful incoming goodies, we anticipate being able to put 2 to 3 computers in every classroom. With this equipment we will be able to help the teachers incorporate technology into the curriculum.
Thanks again,
P.A.M. Borys, step@mediaone.net
