Abstract	Maine is the first state to deliver "anytime, anywhere learning" to schools by providing laptop computers to every 7th and 8th grader in public schools statewide. It's an unprecedented attempt by a state to be a catalyst for school technology. The brainchild of then-Governor Angus King, the Independent who herded it through the legislature and won over a skeptical public, the laptop initiative was launched in 2002. This article reports on the mark made by the laptops as well as the technical and financial implications of the state-designed initiative in Buckfield Junior/Senior High School. (ERIC).
