Also make sure the room has proper cooling. We have schools losing machines left and right because AC is "too expensive" So is replacing lab machines every 2 years due to failure from overheating. At one school their entire lab failed in about 14 months, and cost 4x what installing AC would to replace.
As for the transport of electricity I think there already is an excellent method. Aluminum Gallium power sources produce hydrogen from water and all you would need to do is ship them back to a Nuclear power plant where it would be vastly more efficient to remove the Oxygen to recondition the power source.
Wait. We can put an electric potential between two cables and pull energy out hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away. Instead, you want to ship aluminum ingots back and forth across the country. What. The. Fuck.

Meh. Seeing people bitching about new Facebook layouts is quite entertaining. In fact, it's the highlight of my week. If they took that away from me I just don't know what I'd do...
no you're not going to jump up and go buy but it helps condition you.
If what you say is true (and I have no doubt that it is), does it not make the very presence of advertising that much more pernicious?
Because you're reasoning under the wildly inaccurate assumption that people block advertising because it doesn't work. People don't need advertising, it's a waste of their time but if it's the least bothersome option they'll watch the ads and the ads will work. In fact, the more that is blocked and the less ad spots are available, the more valuable the remaining ones become.
The only thing you're forcing is to integrate the ads more with the content, rather than separate it. Make it impossible for you to get to the content without clicking past ads, put in ad pages between content, integrate it into the video or some other way you can't easily get rid of. Of courser users want 100% content, 0% ads at no cost. And a free pony.
And you are reasoning under the wildly inaccurate assumption that worthwhile content requires the acceptance of ubiquitous advertising. The fact of the matter is that revolutionary ideas are not things that come out of trying to make a quick buck. Anything truly worth publishing on the internet can be expressed as low cost text, or delivered via bittorrent.
Furthermore, many people are quite willing to contribute their resources to projects they consider valuable. Look at Folding@home. Look at Tor, I2P, and Freenet. People share their expertise and capital far more freely than they share their money. This is the problem that Wikipedia is facing, with their constant begging for money. I believe they would fare much better if they moved to a distributed infrastructure and allowed people to mirror the articles.
But the entire point of USB flash drives is being able to carry your data around and access it on random systems. When I want security, I carry a flash drive with portable WinSCP and putty. Create a password-protected ssh key just for that flash drive, and you can just remove it from ~/.ssh/authorized_keys if the flash drive gets lost.
Yes. People also spend hours or days working on one complex task. The 'real world' way of doing things would be to abolish exams altogether and take the grade from a final project or lab.
Can an arbitrary Windows machine read an ext2 volume? Can an arbitrary Linux machine mount a BitLocker volume? Can you install Truecrypt and mount containers on arbitrary Windows and Linux machines without root privileges? Thought not.

they control every aspect of what you do, see and hear.
Do not attempt to adjust the picture.
There aren't any that don't.
Better would be to use colors. Easier to recognize than symbols (unless you're colorblind).

Students can fail from overheating, too.

It's no less compatible with Windows than iOS is.
.PARs short.
Aside: People who run Windows on netbooks are a few

Fortunately, personalized social engineering is not yet a cost-effective way to get people to install your bot.
How much do you think Debian costs?
Many printers will obediently cough up anything that comes in on port 9100.
Dry plant matter could easily be blown through and caught by a centrifugal separator at the other end.
The problem with turning off Aero is that Aero is required for desktop vsync.
Full disk encryption.
WTF is STRG?

A lot of the desktop environments are starting to assume you have a super key. Gnome 3, Unity. Even fluxbox's defaults use it, IIRC.

The last time I checked, Truecrypt used a kernel mode driver, and thus required admin privileges to run on Windows.
