which is what apple is doing in the education field in germany currently. almost giving ipads away to schools and large companies with a lot of apprentices.
the only problem is they gave apple products to future electronics technicians. we all hate them (except for the few apple fanboys).
an ipad is basically a regular tablet with a fancy-pants processor that you will never use to its full potential, horrible battery life, made out of expensive materials, with the most locked down OS ever.
i've actually had to use my personal phone for work stuff that the ipad was just too locked down to do.
Ha, that's interesting. And I felt the same way, having already been brought up with Dos and Windows at an early age, when they pushed iMacs in class, I groaned. Now, it's a whole other animal with the tablet and phone generation (with a few exceptions where a district will opt to get a Chromebook which is, honestly, significantly worse!)
