    Well that’s undeniable. But, coming back to this school, do you think that they could afford licenses for the latest MS Office and or MS Windows? No they would teach with one or more generations ago where things are laid out and function totally different.

    So you get the same issues you are complaining right now and nobody gained anything.

      Microsoft typically offers licenses to education… and when it comes to Windows it doesn’t even matter as most retailers already sell machines with Windows licenses with very competitive prices. It’s usual to see bigger retailers selling computers with a Windows license at the same price a smaller retailer would do without license just because they’ve the volume and get good deals from both Microsoft and hardware vendors.

      I’m not complaining, just stating something that should be taken into consideration.

        Well apparently bit in this case as it’s too unimportant, as you said.

              That’s fair but I was extrapolating a bit there. After all unless their IT department and IT related teachers were really inept they would’ve know that Microsoft offers things to education and would’ve got them.
