From today's on-line Chronicle of Higher Ed:

Wow, tying this in with the recent edu topic, it looks like the journalism schools need help:

Macs still work with Windows programs, so students will have something more to do on the computers than play with iTunes.

So, all Macs can do is run iTunes? No Office, email, browser, photo/video editing? And since iTunes runs on Windows, what is the point of that statement?

A little research and fact checking would go along way. Is that taught in journalism class?

But, thanks for posting this, it is good news. I've said before that Apple should heavily target college campus computer centers. Now that they can dual boot, they have a big advantage - and they should 'sell' that advantage. On my recent college visits, I would see libraries and computer labs filled with both Wintel and Macs. If the schools started a replacement program with dual-boot Macs, they could probably have less computers overall, since you would not need to slice-and-dice between the two types. Any overflow of Win/Mac/Win ratio could be handled by the dual boot. That would be fantastic advertising of Mac capabilities, in a very high profile position.

Apple marketing - get with the program!
