Mishka-

It doesn't seem like the mid-west is that bad. I'm at CA and very close to silicon valley. Our school is so backward on technology it's not even funny! Here are some examples:

1) The CCNA teacher said "All networks must have cables"
2) The network is down at least once every month and the school turns the cheap switches on and off until it works again.
3) The administration REFUSED to assign accounts to each student in order to kick out those who violate rules.
4) We don't HAVE routers to play with ='(
