Actually, as I'm gearing up to being one of those potentially highly
paid Professors in the next year or so, I can attest first-hand to
the fact that money from the forced sale of IBM Thinkpads at my
school does not in any way see the light of day in anyone in my
department's paycheck. I would look first to the Chancellor, then
the Provosts and Vice Provosts, then the Deans, and even various
lower-level administrators for excessive salaries due to fascist
computer policies. Since it's a publicly funded university you can
check it out yourself--the exact amount of everyone's salaries is
publicly available.
Meanwhile, there is *one* guy on the whole of campus that I can go to
if I have trouble with my Apple product, plus the only discount I get
is the one Apple itself provides me.

Hey, they get them by the truckload for almost nothing and then

two hours
a day.
If you are a lowly Art Student, you then get an iBook for the same
price
and if you don't like it, transfer to another school.
