    The plan on a large scale with a team sounds good, but IT at schools is a total mixed bag due to budget, etc. I’ve seen some schools where IT is just burnt out and underpaid (can’t tell which came first) and sometimes the IT team will be an old head that still reminisces about Windows NT.

    It would be cool if there was an independent team that resurrected those laptops for schools. I think the problem that arises though is security.
