Lausanne is very well know for their 1:1 program. I'm curious about your
allowing outside laptops? It sounds like the outside laptops are
integrated in your 1:1 program. Are the outside laptops used in the same
manner as the "School" laptops within your 1:1 program?
How does this affect any plans you may have for Tablets?
Thanks.
