Yes, I now have 25 Macs that aren't allowed on the internet. We are 
doing fine without the district helping us. If they would rather not 
encourage higher level thinking and higher productivity, so be it. As 
long as they can bubble in the right answers on the ITBS...what else 
matters? I saved a copy of the letter explaining that the Windoze XP's 
are 160 security updates behind. This is a matter of closed minds.

how much time and taxpayer money is wasted with windows upkeep are
figures that will never see the light of day.

I agree = and have over these many years more than once and two board
members are good friends...it's useless or worse.  Not sure what to do
now.  It's a fight = just ask Holly what a pain in the rear end it was
to spend NON DSM money on Macs....the IT and supplies folks are rabid
haters.
