A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Right, for a huge enterprise they would probably honestly consider it, but a school with ~1000 students? Less? It's going to be cheaper to trash those and get new ones. Don't get me wrong I think it's a terrible waste and Google is horrible for putting them in this situation, and I'd love for the open source community to offer some scripts for wiping, installing ubuntu, setting up ACLs, connecting to a domain, connecting shares, etc, but still most schools are going to see this and just say "Okay google how much money do you need for us to keep working?"
