In 2004, they required the HP Compaq Business Notebook nw8000 of all incoming Freshman, at a pricetag of over $3200 each. Doesn’t matter if it’s the best price, or the most suitable machine, or what the student is familiar with: they all have to have identical machines.
Why? Because it makes life easier on them.
Easier isn’t always better.
