Jim,<div><br></div><div>We were one of those Gates Grant libraries that invested in Acer PCs. They have been installed and in use for over a year now. I have been really pleased with their performance and reliability as public access PCs to date.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The only complaint that I have is that in order to register the units with their support, I had to jump through some hoops as their system does (or at least did) not seem capable of supporting bulk updates of this information.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I'd be happy to answer any specific questions that you might have.</div><div><br></div><div>thanks,</div><div><br clear="all">Eric Maynard<br>Head of Information Technology,<br>Holmes County District Public Library<br>
