  1. Anyone using the HP Stream 11.6" in classrooms yet. If so how you getting on. Particularly interested in the battery life
  2. Really sorry was a rude comment to FoofighterJim and not helpful. i must have had a bad batch as the ones we had are very unresponsive and out of the 30 we have 10 power pack fails. It sounds like things have moved on from here. I was impressed with the console for managing them

    Data recovery

    Any recommend a data recovery utility for Mac's. Could be desperate!!!
  4. And then moving swiftly on
  5. NEC M230X throw ratio 1:1.3-2.4....- £340 from misco/ebuyer i think epson s3 1.45-1.95, so you are fine for that. you will have to change the plug from figure of eight to kettle, but should not have to move the mount
  6. At the moment cost of the LCD's screens seems so much, as compared to a traditional board installation. You really do not want to go smaller than 55" and that is expensive and lets face it the newest boards the SBM680 is 77". Unless you go for SMART LCD's they sting you on the cost of Notebook license. Other thoughts are they are really heavy so will need a specialist installer and bat-toning. Also if a SB680 or equivalent breaks you would be unlucky if the projector breaks at the same time. If an LCD panel goes you maybe faced with a big bill. Having said all that, i think the LCD's are the way to go. I think that the tech is not quite there yet and this might be you are waiting till the next refresh cycle.
  7. Any got any recommendations for a company that can install stage lighting into my primary school in Warwickshire. Nothing fancy
  8. thank you , very much
  9. Anyone know the throw ratio on a EMP 760. I want to replace one that is gone, but do not want to move the cage. The spec sheet online does not list. Is it the same as the F;Number , which is F-number: 1.58 to 1.76 .76
  10. which screens are you going for just out of incidence
  11. I want to put interactive boards into our school. They currently do not have smartboards. So new install scenario. I am looking at the Smart ones and also CTOUCH. Anyone got any experience. I have heard the Clevertouch and Genee stuff is to be avoided any comments experiences would be appreciated
  12. We had a similiar issue with a load of Fujitsu a544. Fujitsu were not much help. Ending up going to the intel site and picking up the latest driver. This will probably not help you though. Are they 64 bit machines
  13. Let's see if they have sorted out the 'web clip' issue
  14. thank you so much , I will try later and report back. this could solve my Kanex problem as well
  15. by the machine, do you mean the sunny box or the laptop/pc
  16. Our school has just got Solar panels and they have a module that you can logon that tells you how much power it is producing. The problem is the school is on a proxy server. If you turn off the proxy you can access the ip address of the box. This is on the school ip range. why would turning the proxy off allow me to access the box, and how can I get round this. The company where not very helpful
  17. what is the battery life like

    Mac imaging

    I am going to be installing a new trolley of Macbook Airs. What is the best imaging tool to use. Clonezilla/redo /ghost alike. I do not mind doing it with USB hard drives. and if necessary paying for the software any thoughts
  19. definitely opt for a sync and charge trolley would be my advice and I will second the Mac Mini thing. Nice and compact and avoids the temptation for someone to 'borrow' it to do mac stuff with. It is so small it can be tucked well away
  20. We are having a few issues with our new iPads. I want to be able to download the apps on one and turn the auto download apps slider to on. But it will not stay there. I have signed into the account, the device is ios 7.1.1 any ideas
  21. If it is anything like the NEC's. There is a setting called keystone save, which is off by default. You have too really look for it in the setup menu. I am guessing the Viewsonic has a similiar setting. Once you find this you will be away
  22. I would like a script to untick the 'automatically detect settings' box in Internet options. Group policy does not seem to handle this in the same way that it does the proxy server
  23. Lapsafe everytime. With iPads I would not go for anything else apart from sync and charge with Mac. Try updating 30 iPads to ios... over wifi. firstly it will take forever, also most proxies throw a wobbly. Configurator, Mac, sync and charge trolley is the dream ticket for iPad management.
  24. I have been running a time lapse camera for a building project that we have going on. I now want to edit the output and puts some music to it. The output file is in .avi format. Anyone got a recomendations for free software that will help me out. Needs to be relatively easy to use, so I can show my colleagues for future projects.
