  • 12/01/96

Combining the best of TVs and the best of computers, the Destination PC creates a dramatic "theater" environment for trainers.

While students watch a large 31" television monitor, instructors can control their presentation via a wireless keyboard or mouse from across the room. Want to integrate resources from the Web? It's easy with the unit's built-in, high-speed modem.

The PC side of the product is a Pentium-based computer stuffed with a TV video card, 8x CD-ROM drive, large hard disk and plenty of RAM. Educational software comes bundled as well.

Each Destination PC is custom built to order; prices start around $3,000. Gateway 2000, North Sioux City, IA, (800) 846-2419, www.gw2k.com/ destination.
