<strong>Just read at Think Secret that Apple stopped development on the Enterprise edition of PowerSchool (10,000 students +).
Pretty sad story to see that Apple failed with one of their most ambitious projects in of of their most precious markets ;-(</strong><hr></blockquote>
How many potential customers do you think they had in that market? 10? I could see only universities having that many students and universities don't need powerschool. It's just the 'enterprise' market, it's not all powerschool development. (Your thread title is a bit misleading.)
Considering the history of Apple letting stuff like this take on a life of its own, I find it (perhaps perversely) reassuring to see them take this action. I try to see the bright side.
It's not called PowerUniversity. PowerSchool is designed for use in K-12 schools and school districts. There are plenty of school districts with 10,000+ students, but in reality the benefit of the Enterprise product and services was probably minimal compared to the smaller offerings.
School districts with 10,000+ students could easily work with the remaining offerings.

This is a serious question
