I was at my 6th grader son's school's open house last night and marvelled at the fact that every class room at an digital projector. No more TV's on a cart. No more teacher walking in front of the Overhead projector. School announcements were being broadcast from some office... I was impressed. It was more advanced than the office.....

But then I looked in the back of the science classroom and lined up very neatly (is was open house) were 6 pc's on individual tables each with a 15 or 17" monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, and a CPU unit. None of these were bolted down... The problem I had with this was simply the space, the exposed cabling, and the potential for something to drop on the floor or walk out the door.

It seems like you could take half a notebook, screw it to the bottom of a table, drill a hole in the table for cables, and put a CD/DVD R/W in the base of a monitor and have a cleaner appearing solution, with more work space, eliminate damage and theft, and increase reliability. ......
