    I think it is a good idea with smaller schools that dont ahve major email infrastructers... but that isnt many... mostly HSs and such.. no colleges...

    I think it is a great idea. Around my area you have your Apple Labs but you don't have your schools were you have just Macs. At my college we have 1 huge lab with about 60 Powermac G4 Quicksilvers for the Graphic Arts program. Other than that we have the Dell and Micron computers. Well yeah than you got me and my iBook which goes to school every day with me . That would rule to see .Mac used in my school but I doubt I will ever see that while I am going.

    Second that. Even the smallest high school computer lab should have its own backup and virus protection strategy. If an educational customer is going to pay US$700 (min. 10x US$70) annually, they might as well get their own domain name and host it with a low-cost service like <a href="http://www.pair.com"; target="_blank">pair Networks</a> (for a lot less).
