My daughter attends Goucher College. They explicitly REJECT Linux. If you want to hook up to the network you MUST use Windows XP or newer, or MAC. They prohibit all forms of LINUX. They want to force THEIR anti-virus onto your computer and they are unable to do that with linux.
You can do Linux via their wireless guestnet, but you cannot access school resources this way.

It's a shame that Linux does not also discount their prices by 10% to support the sagging economy. Well, maybe they do. Let's see 10% of $0 is still $0. So I guess they just don't brag too much about the discount.

Too expensive. Not worth it. Say no to Comcast.

This sounds like a great boost for Thunderbird since Windows is no longer offering a mail client. Good idea. Nice way to promote Thunderbird.
