Easier to setup? Um no.. Look into the story a bit, UT hired CRAY super computers to set up their cluster while VT had hte volunteer help of some students.. Easier to setup..
Because, there are few classes where they actually teach the students the OS?
You can teach them to use photoshop or a number of other things on a Mac and they can go home and use their windows machine and still function in photoshop with no problem.
Apple was making a lot of money from the education, I don`t think they will lose it though. I know they are losing a lot of ground but in retrospect they have not been as actively persuing it as they have other markets.
Perhaps Apple has a trick up its sleeve for schools.
I know where I used to work there was a couple of die hard Apple fans in the tech departement that will now allow the school to be taken over by PCs.:D
haha.. Right because you know KDE has so much to do with *nix. KDE is just a window manager you tool. So when you boot into your real *nix operating system, Linux I`m guessing, You will have an OS that will look the same but operate completely different. Yeah that wont be confusing.
I guess its okay though because You know as well as I know that your not running any unix based OS.
