I have just gotten mounted in my room a permanent projector . . . admidtly, it's a cheap one, but it gets the job done, and by the start of the next school year a Smart Board will be attached to the wall for use with it . . . who says that computer projection technology is too complex for teachers :-D

Until I retired last May, as the AV coordinator for my high school,
computer projection was just too complex for most of the teachers. The main
problem was the setup procedures.
I had lots of Ektagraphic Kodak Carousels available for use - and they were
used many times.

Seems to be the theme of the afternoon:
I met a colleague on campus and I walked with him to the media center
in the library. He needed a slide projector. He told the student at
the desk and she comes back with a computer projector. After several
minutes of unproductive conversation, he shows her a slide from the
little pack he has with him. She thinks its really neat but expresses
the opinion that it must cost a lot to actually have these things made.
I am laughing and generally being unhelpful, so he says "yes, but
nothing is too good for my students". We finally go with her into the
back and locate the elusive Kodak Carousel.
I'm going to ask my daughter (17) tonight if she's ever had a slide show during her high school career. Now that I think about it, everything I've seen there, including pictures during sports awards night, has been computer projection.
