What an exciting weekend!
My new Epson projector was installed on Friday, so I got a chance to play with it a bit on Friday night, so I was ready come Monday. I love the ability to adjust the projector settings from the tablet. Today I was running a demonstration on my Computer repair PC, and I was able to change the screen back and forth between the tablet, where I was discussing news stories, to the installation to see progress.
Later, we were discussing the freeware program Skype, which is used for videoconferencing. I took the tablet around the room to show everyone the screen, and let students talk through it to other students who were connected across the room.
Other thoughts: Just as a design flaw, it seems silly that the SD card sticks out a bit when it is seated. Any time I put the tablet in it's case, it inevitably gets clicked out, and windows gets a bit angry. Silly gateway.
I am also setting up the PCs in the comp repair lab to use DRBL, or Diskless Remote Boot Loader. This is the method they use at Harper College. Essentially, a student boots up a computer, and it looks to the network for possible boot options. This could be windows 2000, XP, Windows Vista, or any number of linux variants. More on that as it develops.
