The newest iteration of Baggage difference engines, titled the “Mark III”, is now available for retail purchase, and the Benevolent Order of Stone Mages will be replacing and upgrading their current systems. The order will be donating as many as 20 of their obsolete terminals to Hesperus Intermediate Academy in the interest of familiarizing the next generation of our citizenry with the devices which are rapidly becoming integral to daily life. The Orlandia Engineering Society will also be assisting in the integration of this technology by handling installation, as well as instructing professors and administrators on operation and light maintenance.
The academy will receive additional public funding to build a processing house, which is typically a two-story, five-hundred-square-metered structure in which the main processing unit will be installed, and where punchcards will be entered and filed. The project also involves general remodeling to facilities so as to allow the installation of the electrical cables which will grant the terminals access to the main processing unit, not to mention the external aethernet system. While the Mark II system is considered obsolete by current industry professionals, the Metropolitan Orlandia School Board deems the system being donated as more than adequate for key administrative and communicative functions for both students and faculty. The installation project is set to begin in early August.
