AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � Preliminary state data indicates that 68 of Maine's 120 high schools will equip their students with Apple laptops under the state's Learning Technology Initiative.



The Kennebec Journal reported Friday that another 14 districts have yet to decide on laptops and six districts are awaiting word on whether they can use a pool of federal funds to pay for the equipment.



Maine Education Department spokesman David Connerty-Marin said the department expects to place an order for 60,000 laptops and then order additional machines as more districts make their decisions.
