    --- TIC-TECH message:
    Last year, our librarian was told that the district was going to buy each school
    either a large screen digital tv or a video projector. We were supposed to choose
    which we wanted. Later, we were told that we couldn't pick, that we were just
    going to get one or the other (I don't rememeber which). Then nothing happened.
    Does anyone know what happened to this? Most schools really need some sort of
    projection device.
