Open Slate

The goal of the Open Slate Project is to transform the way computers are 
used in secondary education. Rather than fencing computers in by making 
them a subject to study, computers ought to be fully integrated into the 
educational process, as common in classrooms as textbooks and chalk 
boards. The key to success is to recognize and use the skills of the 
students. The project encompasses self-made slate computers, a 
supporting network, and a collection of educational software.

since 1999, Mr. Dunn has used FreeBSD exclusively to support his 
employer's Windows network, and has never been without his Apple Newton 
since 1993. He holds degrees in music and has performed regularly with 
the University of Hawaii Gamelan Ensemble for over thirty years, and 
still finds time to be a serious cyclist.
