bennett Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 At my school we have 3 computer rooms 2 of them are full of macs around 30 to each class and the other room has P4 Dells with Windows XP ( We got these because one kid couldnt use a mac so the school went and got 30 lol ). All of the teachers have Powerbooks and the computer lab teachers use the G4 Powerbooks and the school servers are run by Windows 2003 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctebah Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 My school has one computer room, for some reason it's tucked away in the back of the school, that has Mac computers and they use them for video editing. Drafting class that is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borbus Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 my school has a sh!t load of sh!te computers and a handful of newer ones. None of them are macs. Wish they were, most of the POSs cannot even run win2000 at a satisfactory speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmbandfan22 Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 Department of Ed here switched into a contract with Dell now. Only problem is that the system is always down and getting infected with viruses. Gotta love Windows. :D Only good computers are the old G4's and G3's doing DV work in the studio. Most are running OS9 but some have OSX 10.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaMonkey82 Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 My high school had both Macs and PC's running 98. Most people used the Macs even though they were older. I graduated in 2000 so I don't know what they have there now. At the University of Maryland, there are lots of Macs. A friend of mine runs one of the Chemistry departments computer labs and it is 100% Mac. I also know they just got in late last year a bunch of G5's.

Tran Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 We have a lot of Macs but they are being replaced by Dells (the Macs were old and had to go anyway). But that's just the computer labs, we still have a lot of G3 iMacs in the library and a G4 PowerMac or two in the video editing lab or whatever it is.
