[K12OSN] Building a new school- need input

[Mark Cockrell <cockrell honeygroveisd net>]

Hello all,
   My district is in the process of planning a new high school, and I'm 
pitching the idea of putting 25 computers (thin clients) in each 
classroom.  We're looking at using a desk in which the monitor and 
keyboard hide away when not in use so that the student has the full 
workspace when not using the computer, but has nearly instant access to 
a terminal when necessary.  Naturally the question that I'm being asked 
repeatedly is, "Who else is doing this?"  So, I put that question to the 
group.  Do any of you have such a room, or do any of your schools have a 
1:1 desktop initiative like I'm proposing?  If so, what are the good and 
bad points?  I welcome any feedback.  Thanks in advance.
