News Microsoft Breaks Ground on High-Tech School

[Futurama] Welcome! To the World of Tomorrow! [/Futurama]

Microsoft "School of the Future" (tm) will released in 2006. Hardware requirements have not been released, but I assume that they'll be hefty as Longhorn will (allegedly) be out by then. This from BetaNews:

Philadelphia children will soon have a glimpse into what could be the future of public education thanks to a joint project between Microsoft and the School District of Philadelphia. Microsoft representatives were on hand earlier this month to break ground on this new project, slated to open in 2006.

The "School of the Future" is being lauded by Philadelphia politicians as a way to improve quality of life for its citizens.
