Hewlett Packard
corporation has been extremely generous in their donations to our projects.
Their first donation was a HP Vectra XU 5/90C computer. This system
has a Pentium 90 processor, 16 megabytes of RAM, 530 megabytes of hard
drive space, and a 6X CD-ROM. Most impressively, this system came with
a 4-megabyte video card to run the Ultra VGA 1600 21" monitor. Accompanying
this machine were a HP DeskJet 550C color printer and a HP ScanJet 3C
flatbed color scanner. In 1996, HP donated several new computer systems.
The second system is from the Vectra 500 series. It is comprised of
a Pentium 166 processor, 16 megabytes of RAM, a 1.6 gigabyte hard drive
and an 8X CD-ROM. We also received from HP a P166 Omnibook laptop and
a top-of-the-line palmtop computer.
Hewlett Packard is an commendable computer company
and they have a committment to education that reflects their excellence.
Very recently they granted us one of their best internet servers, the
LH PRO. It is a 200 Mhz machine with twin Pentium Pro processors, over
128Megs Ram, a CDR (Writeable CDROM) and a regular CDROM. It is a fantastic
machine capable of handling several T-1 lines, token rings, ethernet
networks, etc. This server allows customers to operate their own web
site and become their own service provider. We can now make the critical
transformation into The "Classrooms of the Future" by connecting any
type of network in our operation thus encompassing many others in both
Hyde Park and the United States.
