<strong>Main Report or Narrative:</strong>

This week, Dana and I faced the horrors of ghosting.  Usually it goes fairly well for us, but this week was different.  Because we only have one ethernet cable in the lab, we are usually confined to ghosting one computer at a time.  This is a slow and monotonous process.

However, there is good news.  Today, while setting up a computer in 216 for the Health teacher, we came upon a stock pile of unused ethernet cables.  We will now be ghosting machines...no pun intended.  More seriously though, this is a great find that will enable us to work with a number of computers at one time whether it be ghosting or downloading appropriate drivers.

We have added several computers to the junk pile this week.  Several classrooms have had problems with computers and they are so severe, i.e. they will not turn on, that they are now useless.  We will spend next week trying to fix a few computers well enough to put them into classroom use.

Here and there there were some minor tasks such as fixing a printer or two, and what not, but getting as many computers as possible working was the main task this week.
