I go to Bradley university. It is ranked at #24 and our Tech SUCKS!! Do we have wifi, Yes. BUT, in very few buildings, not in the dorms, and the only outside hot spot is run by my computer group from a house. We have a high computer student ratio because every have to buy a computer or rent a POS from the school. Our network admins are lucky to keep our netowrk running half the time. A "simple upgrade" to out blackboard online system took it our for 2 weeks and lost the the teachers attached files. The very few servers in the CS department are not used and the ones that are terminal servers have 10mbps connections. Hell, our CS department DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A LAB!!! Personally I think this school's technology sucks. Some community colleges around here have better wireless access and labs. I think they need to check how the rank these schools in the future.
I would say that DVD's will be around for a while even if a new format, just like VHS is now. They have been released in large amount unlike VCD or laser disks that I bet the average person cannot find in their local Best Buy. They might get old but I don't see them leaving any time too soon until another format truely proves it self.
