Samsung's big gift to TAF
Posted by Brier Dudley
With all the excitement around the Bungie spinoff, I missed this news last week out of the World Cyber Games in Seattle.
It turns out the big winner was Technology Access Foundation, the Seattle nonprofit that gives kids more opportunities to learn computing.
Samsung, a sponsor of the games, gave TAF 600 19-inch LCD monitors used in the games. It also gave the organization 47 42-inch and 50-inch plasma displays.
The "amazing additions" will replace the overworked CRT monitors at the TAF Academy and TechStart sites, Trish Millines Dziko, executive director, said in a newsletter today.
