    Think of a bell curve of ability.
    From the advance math class with a desktop computer looking at a graph during math class.
    Consider the other end of that bell curve and what other students do to a free new computer.

  15. Collect it all keeps all file in place. What better place to keep files for later investigation than with the brand that collected them.
    The US gov can say they don't have files on their own computers. No FOIA will find any such projects.
    Just the ability to look back over all files that never got removed and stayed with the social media brands.

    Win win.
