Arizona HS considers iBook
A new Vail District High School in Arizona is in an effort to better cater to state curriculum and test mandates, according to the Arizona Daily Star. The school's 350 students and 50 teachers would each be equipped with an iBook, which the district would purchase at the reduced price of $600 a piece. The Vail District is one of four or five districts in the state expected to receive funding for laptop programs.
not too much of a win

This district is already heavily Mac - its no surprise that they would be leading the way in the state with a one to one program. They already have a zillion Macs, and Powerschool.
In fact, I think Ive seen their IT honcho post here :)
Im excited though - it will be great to see how well this works locally. Vail is just outside of Tucson, where our largest school district has blown millions of dollars and watch IT go down in flames as they migrated to Wintel.
