      1. @abigpony What if its a laptop supplied by the school?

        1. @doates Then the rich school is an insult in itself.

          1. @abigpony My school isn't rich. At all. We are in debt. Teachers and being laid off left and right.

            1. @doates How are they able to supply you with laptops then? That's ridiculous misplacement of money.

              2. @abigpony School funding is spectacularly bucked up. My old district had a 'capital improvements' budget and an operating one, and by law could not mix the two. We were upgrading all are facilities to use up the one budget while cutting teachers because of a shortfall in the other.

                  2. @abigpony In my state, the way the state gives the schools money was actually ruled illegal. That was a decade ago. Nothing has changed.

      2. @abigpony The other kids are too afraid their precious computer will catch a virus from the school air... or something.

        1. @redenchilada Viruses like to hide under the keyboard if you're not careful.
