Default School laptop and ipod

I just went to the kids school and learned that the laptop and ipod they are getting is a pilot program from Apple. Apple is supplying them free and they will repair or replace them if damaged. The ipod's will be used to view short video's relating to subjects studied and not music. The laptops will remain in class. Would have been better if they were PC's but it won't hurt her to learn a different OS.

Hey, that's pretty cool 8) And yes, I agree that it's good for kids to learn more than one OS. That's why I break out Linux whenever I have visitors. I find that a lot of people don't even know what Linux is! :shock:

She's used linux but I don't understand it enough to teach her much other than installing and the rest is like windows other than installing packages which gives me fits.
