I have long known my public school was lacking in the area of computers. I don't mean this in a hardware sense, but more in the sense of software, regulating students, and the school's single Administrator. Now how could you possibly mess up with software at a school... Well, they run a multitude of different Operating Systems, ranging from XP to Win7, also a couple of rigs running VMware as they can't directly run a os? Now that's not THAT bad.. The worst of the worst is by far.. The fact that they are running Internet Explorer on every Pc, on top of that, the IE versions are from years. So now we've covered the software aspect, however there's more to share with you.. The whole time i've been in highschool, the IT has been attempting to block facebook, however he has failed multiple times. The IT somehow messed it up so bad, that it randomly blocks it on certain pcs, you can login it won't work.. Log off and log back in and it will etc. The above example was recent, he also managed to block Facebook and youtube for not only the students, but for the teachers as well.. This took him about a week to fix. In his carelessness he also set the passwords on many school sites to that of the actual admin pass on most of the pcs. I really don't know how it could get any worse... Half of our teachers don't know the difference between IE and firefox, and most have a hard time working their pcs at all...
If your school is worse, or (was) worse, please comment and tell me abuot it... I believe my highschool has taken the award for stupidity.
