Back in the days of personal computing, an administrator at my high school managed to secure funding for a robotics course despite there not being anyone at the school who knew more than basic wiring. We wound up buying an Apple ][ and a Rubbermaid trash can and an early voice recognition module (Cognivox) which we then mounted on a set of wheels and put the monitor on a lazy susan on top and the opening was made into a drawer for the computer/keyboard, and the bottom was opened up to have a latchable door where an extension cord and other accessories could be stored. We called it CTC-1 (Computerized Trash Can, Mark 1) --- always wondered what happened to it and the lab of TRS-80 Model IIIs... I still regret not over-ruling the finance committee and buying my kids a Lego Mindstorm set when they first came out..... |
