eBeam: $4,000 less per classroom than Promethean

Shhhh...don't tell Superintendent Joshua Starr that there is a company that puts out a product that turns an ordinary white board, or even a flat surface, into an interactive white board for around $500.  Here's what a teacher wrote about this product on her blog.

Superintendent Starr has his heart set on spending $4,474 per classroom for Promethean Board brand interactive white boards.  

That is the beauty of no bid contracts. The public never has to even *think* that there might be a less expensive alternative to the name brand that is shown at all the cool education conventions.  No RFP's or bidding wars for MCPS!
