Re: I RTFA and TFP

Someone at the Indiana state capital got a really impressive presentation using pie-charts presented by an attractive salesman/woman, who convinced them to trial technology they don't need - because someone somewhere with a fleeting understanding of technology believed this could bridge the digital divide and make the state more technologically relevant.

But that's just my take, I could be wrong.

Re: I RTFA and TFP

To be fair, it seems Indiana is getting it free as a marketing move by Simdesk, so no actual taxpayer money was used.

Still looks worthless though.

Re: I RTFA and TFP

Do you really think that we will not pay for this one way or other. Do you think this company is not getting some thing for this? I have not dug deep but will and I bet that my tax dollars will end up in this company some how.

Might your tax dollars end up there in the future? I don't know. Are they ending up there now? No.* Is it that unreasonable to think the company might give the crappy product away as a publicity stunt?

* - If I'm wrong, please show me where.
