Clint Plummer, an employee of Exelon Business Services Corp. of Clinton, encouraged a Lincoln chapter FFA adviser to apply for used laptop computers from his company. Mr. Plummer learned of the need for more computer power at the annual fall Lincoln FFA chapter picnic. Plummer is the father of Jesse Plummer in the Lincoln chapter. The IBM notebook computers will be used to enter the EZ Records and use the MyCaret system of agriculture education and basically teach without books. The electricity class wired up the Internet connections in the agriculture classroom to facilitate the laptops.

The Lincoln Community High School electricity class has been learning to install Cat5 computer data wire and connecting the terminals to the wire ends. The wires contain four pairs of color-coded wires that must be sequenced properly to get data transmission. Students have wired several computer labs to receive the Internet.
