I work at a company with dry erase boards used nearly daily. In the decade I have been there, they seem to still be functional. Maybe get some 3M modified stuff instead of office depot. Or...spend money on this. Unless it scans. Don't have all the facts. |

It looks like it might scan what had been written before it cleans the board. But even if that is the case, I don't think the nostalgia is worth the price tag when you could buy a SMARTboard for the same price... |

Kind of a waste of technology. It's like making a cyborg horse to pull your wagon instead of just building a car. |

That's incredably lazy.
Unles it gathers up the chalk dust and compresses it, then spits out a newly recycle stick of chalk.
1 cent chalk from a $12,000 machine |

Why are you even using a chalk board? |

I'm sure much more trivial things are paid for with tax dollars every day. |

@Elevill: we don't play that game here. You're setting yourself up for a swift ban.
Dry erase gets just as dirty, or worse. It leaves all the marker residue, until there's a purplish hue to the whole board that you need to clean off with windex.
And to comment on the photo itself: How utterly lazy can a person get? |

Maybe it scans in front of it's eraser? Seems like a waste of technology otherwise.
On a related note: I want a smartboard! |

@elevill, first? i'd ask if you're twelve, but your profile says you're not. Firsts usually come with a ban btw. |
