LAPTOP HANDOUT COULD FREE UP CLASSROOM SPACE
The president of Miami-Dade County's teacher's union has told Florida 
Governor Jeb Bush that the state could save $30 million by giving laptop 
computers to all high school students and teachers and converting 1,680 
computer labs to classrooms. United Teachers of Dade president Pat Tornillo 
says buying the 644,000 laptops would be much cheaper than building 1,680 
classrooms, noting that the number of computer labs represents the 
equivalent of 34 high school buildings. (AP/Miami Herald 11 Feb 2003)
