Calculatoare noi

When I showed up to the fields on Friday to help with the grape harvest, the school's geography teacher told me that the school was getting new computers. When I checked with my vice-principal, she confirmed that the school had won a county-wide contest for cleanliness and upkeep of facilities, and as a result is one of six schools in the county to receive a new computer classroom with 11 computers.

When my vice-principal told me the computers would be installed next week, I jumped up and down in the middle of the field and hugged her. Later in the day, I called my parents at different timesand received a "That's great!" from my mom and "No shit!" from my dad.

I'll have more details on the lab next week, but all I know so far is that my lab is changing from eight Pentium MMX 166 mhz machines (three of which are in disrepair) to 11 modern computers. I won't talk more about the possibilities until I know exactly what I have, but in the mean time, I'll wait with high hopes. At the very least, the computers will have CD-ROM drives.

I've searched, but found no follow-up story where you mention the configuration of the new computers; I'm very curious.
