I should note that we are spending federal grant money so probably hookers and blow would set off a red flag. Wait, that was a silly thing to say, that's what federal money is typically used for!

Edit: Honestly though, I really have to be able to justify the product in some way shape or form

Sonor drumset.

Double bass, 4 toms, 2 floor toms, snare, picollo snare. Add Zildjian cymbals and I need a throne. Would love to have the double kick pedals too.

Buy a medium format digital camera. Then make sure to insure it and ship it to me, that should take up quite a chunk.

New video conferencing and/or projectors/displays for conference rooms?

I'd say either this, or a blade server. Use the extra capital to cut down on day-to-day.

 

[Coqui]

Google 2U Intranet server
