RM construction

Construction Update - PTSA Newsletter

The construction of the new RM is finally underway! Sewer lines have been
rerouted and the site preparation is moving along as planned.. Very soon
we will see Park Street Elementary school being demolished to make room
for our new school. The construction company is waiting for clearance
from utility companies to ensure that the demolition is conducted in a
safe manner. As of now, the instructional program is proceeding without
disruption. There is a light buzz that can be heard but not major
disruption to the instructional program has been noticed. For parents who
are new to our community, the new building is scheduled for completion
during the summer of 2007. The old facility will be then demolished to
make room for athletic fields. Total project completion is anticipated by
the summer of 2008. We thank all parents and community members for their
patience and support while we build a house for our academic excellence!

More drive space...

4 GB for 87.90, here.

So, right now, in terms of flash drive storage prices:
4 GB = 88. [edit, you can get 5 GB for $86: here]
1 GB = 38. [edit, $33 is the current lowest]
512 MB = 19.
258- MB = free to 5 dollars.

The 1 GB and the 512 ones can be found at eCost, I believe. Or maybe some other places. Mind, this is size in general, type not considered. USB flash drives tend to be slightly more expensive for the 1 GB / 512 sizes, since more people buy those. But if you go for SD cards, or CompactFlash, you should be able to find them at those prices above.

It's a sign of things to come~ expect more price falling.
