Abstract	This article features Maine Learning Technology Initiative (MLTI), the nation's first-ever statewide 1-to-1 laptop program which marks its seventh birthday by expanding into high schools, providing an occasion to celebrate--and to examine the components of its success. The plan to put laptops into the hands of every teacher and student in grades 7 through 12 throughout the state was the brainchild of former Governor Angus King, who proposed the project in 2000. The first phase of the program rolled out to Maine's seventh-graders in the fall of 2002; eighth-graders were included the following year. By 2003, a total of 37,000 wireless-enabled Apple iBooks had been distributed to the state's middle school students and teachers. The work Maine has done with its teachers on integrating the laptops is regarded as the foundation of the initiative's success. (ERIC).
