I believe this is something every state should look into, preferably Florida!

The state has long struck deals with Apple to provide laptops for many of its students, and according to a report by the Associated Press, it’s in negotiations with Apple to expand the deal this year, putting a MacBook on the desk of every public school student from grades 7 to 12. The 100,000 laptops would run to a cost of roughly $242 per computer per year, or an annual total of close to $25 million.

The state’s program already covers 37,000 middle schools and about 10,000 teachers. Best of all, the money being used to purchase the macs are not from the taxpayers: the money is from existing resources.
