No one actually uses MACs in the real world. :mjgrin:
You will be surprised how many people buy them and don't have a clue how to use them. The don't even know simple shyt like how to use the finder ejecting the device emptying the trash etc.

You're trying too hard.

Knowing where another anonymous poster allegedly went to school is virtually useless given the amount of alumni schools have. You're the one taking shots at another poster's school prestige, but are unwilling to disclose the school you've attended. Finally, if you went to graduate school the "top 10" can change based on field and specialty (the same is true for undergraduate if you're in STEM).

The fact that you became defensive is curious though. I would have expected more from a "top 10" grad.:youngsabo:

Take care.
You think you're being clever. You are not. :russell:


I've already given a lot of information about myself on this board; given my particular background, it would be very easy to figure out who I am just based on the schools I've attended and graduation dates. :yeshrug:


And if you don't know what the top 10 universities in this country (or world even) are, well I guess that says more about you than does me, innit. :dame:

Only bullshyt schools need "qualifiers" in their rankings.

That's what happens when your shyt is too expensive and not compatible with anything outside your own ecosystem

Like I said you're trying too hard.

It's not my fault or concern that you gave out a lot information on this board, you sound messy. As it still stands, you should refrain from talking down to other posters about school prestige when your unwilling to identify yours. Not that it truly matters since different schools can use different hardware/operating systems. Allegedly attending one prestigious institution hardly speaks to all of them. I know your type though, so color me unimpressed.

Take care.

:heh:


You sound hurt and envious.:to:


But take care, indeed. I don't know what I was thinking getting into a shouting match with someone with a 2017 join date.

Apple too expensive is one factor

My kids use Apple stuff in the classroom because its chic. I do adjunct stuff and we use Adobe Connect of all things. I've been pushing for Microsoft stuff for years. I get to use my educator's discount for things and I get Microsoft stuff. I have no need for Apple anything in my life since I retired my OG 160GB iPod in favor of streaming my music from the crib through my phone. I want to see what that Surface Pro 5 is about :whoo:

Yep it's called lockdown browser. Only worked on iOS
looking at their system requirements page

System Requirements for LockDown Browser

seems like they are unnecessarily forcing certain equipment on people. it can work with chromebooks, but only k-12, because they wouldn't be able to enter that market otherwise. so force college kids to buy ipads because they can sell those in the bookstore and whatever is sold in the bookstore can be purchased with pell grants.
