Hi: Just an update on Microsoft's school audit two-step shuffle: http://makeashorterlink.com/?G1F5469E "Microsoft has put the inventory request on hold," said Catherine Brooker, a company spokesman. "Microsoft realized it wasn't as sensitive as it could have been with the timing of its request." How long the hold is on, however, is unclear. Steve Carlson, the associate superintendent for information and technology for Beaverton schools, said Microsoft has put nothing in writing: "We don't know what to believe."
