My son has been going to 2 different elementary schools so far, and both
schools are phasing out their Macs. The first one is almost done. The
assistant principal decided a couple of years ago to buy parts separately
and volunteered to build them himself, so that they could cut costs. You're
right on when you say that schools don't really roll in dough. And we're in
the Fairfax county, in Virginia, one of the county in the US that constantly
has had the best scores nationally...

elder days n.: The heroic age of hackerdom (roughly, pre-1980); the era of
the PDP-10, TECO, ITS, and the ARPANET. This term has been rather
consciously adopted from J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy epic "The Lord of the
Rings". Compare Iron Age; see also elvish and Great Worm.
