Mitch, It looks like your principal wants a wireless cart and you want a couple anchored labs of terminal clients. Are you asking for opinions on which would be better? You can always build computer labs, but do you need mobile computing? Would it be beneficial to have the teachers/students compute in the classrooms or locations other then where the anchored labs are located. The mobile lab is for mobility and more flexibility in your day to day computing needs. A descent wireless solution would need to be in place for the mobile cart or what would be the point. If you are going to create a mobile lab and leave it in one place, then I would do an anchored lab. It all depends on how the staff, students, and teachers are going to use the technology. Usually, I see schools do a combination of the two types of labs. Mobile labs and anchored labs are good solutions, but both are answers to different questions/needs. Oh..I better stop.I am start to sound little Zenish J

We are looking at getting one of them. Our high school principal is wanting one but we have a lot of problems with our wireless network working so I want to stay away from them. I would rather have a couple new labs of terminal services like we have now but using terminal clients and not old computers. Could you guys please give me input of what you think. Any questions just ask and I'll respond asap. Thanks Mitch Mueller Emmetsburg Community Schools
