I got burned by Microsoft Education too many times... hard pill to swallow 
after their edu track record.  its almost like everything with education for 
them is an afterthought.

Subject: [tech-geeks] l...@edu becomes Office 365 for Education

Microsoft doesn't like to let any moss grow under it as it rolls
along. First there was ClassServer, then Semblio, then Grava and
Sharepoint . . . it never slowed down for a moment to put together a
single online quiz.

Is this happening with l...@edu, too? There was Live Mesh, Sky
whatever . . . l...@edu and now Learn 365.

"The l...@edu program will be transitioned to Office 365 for
education, giving our customers access to great new services not
available in l...@edu today, such as advanced Exchange features, Lync
Online, SharePoint Online, archiving, voicemail, and Blackberry
support."

It looks nice, but with the history of so many changes I'm not certain
how much time to invest in it.
