I was ON a broadcast team last year, but we got a pathetic HP/Compaq on which we ran a PowerPoint until the live broadcast started. We had a nice camera, which was replaced with a $1200 one that as of the end of the year had not yet arrived :-/ . We had a cheap RCA video A/V switch and an old converter box (VGA to S-Video or composite) that was so old it had drivers and installation instructions for Mac OS 6/7 and Windows 3.1/95. This particular combination caused really horrible quality problems that made the slides illegible in all but the largest of fonts. I took pity on the next tech person and tried to acquire an older OptiPlex GX270 or GX620, knowing that I definitely couldn't secure one of the district's few Intel iMacs or Mac Pros, but I couldn't evn get a different PC.
