    • An important aspect of the deployment of the laptops is a focus on making them an economic development tool for parents, too. The computers will come with software that links parents to state Department of Labor services, including their Career Centers.



      “We are going to revamp our laptop program and turn it into a powerful tool for the entire family,” Governor Baldacci said. “Every night when students in seventh through 12th-grade bring those computers home, they’ll connect the whole family to new opportunities and new resources.”
