To Utah? Tell us where you are and we'll help you out.

You guys are lucky. I wish California (and this county especially) had good enough budgets and smart enough students (and enough of them) to warrant Mac labs with professional hardware and software in high school. Sadly, I shall have to take that stuff in college instead of beforehand.

Yeah, my school has a real nice mac computer lab with some older 500-800mhz g4's, but all they use it for is the photography class :^(. Theres some bottom line eMac's up in the computer lab, but I never get to use them.

by that comment i would assume that you live in southern California. My school has:
6 quicksilver G4's
3 800 MHz mirror G4's
1 1.2 GHz mirror G4
8 eMacs
2 iMac G4's
5 First Gen G4's
2 B&W G3 towers
1 old school iMac (bondi!)
3 old school iBooks (blueberry)
and this is just in the media lab. the 1.2 gig g4 is my baby 23' display and loded with FCP4 DWMX Soundtrack

but whats depressing is this year we only have funding for repares

BTW heres how High school works
Freshmen - Lowest of the low
Sophmores - Higest of the low
Jr.'s - Lowest of the high
Seniors - Higest of the high

And the only way to beat that system is if you look/act older then you really are (Junior year ROCKS!!!!)

Ah, my school has a mediocre supply of mac's. Theres a whole lab of 700-800mhz G4 towers (about 20 of 'em) in the Photography room, a few 600mhz gumdrop iMac's in there too, one or two iMacs in the media center (the old kind :^( ), and then about 10 eMac's they got last year in the computer lab on the third floor.
But my school is so poor! There are 30-40 kids in every one of my classes! In upwards of 2000 students attend a School with a recommended occupancy of 1400! Ugh, at least I don't go to southwest :^)

Low school... LOL.

Technically, Modesto is Northern California, though we're right in the middle and we're turning into LA. My district is very PC-centric, though, and the most they have is Photoshop 6... but I'm not in high school anymore, so I don't have to worry about it.

I can't wait to transfer to CSU Monterey Bay, with their iMac-filled Mac lab. Huzzah!
