One of my best friends is a teacher at a high school in rural Pennsylvania. When I was admiring her mac laptop last weekend, she informed me that all of the students in her school will get one next year. This seems problematic to me at several levels: A) I am jealous of mac's, particularly when you get to push one button and see the weather; B) There are enough years of life to be glued to a laptop, shouldn't highschoolers run around in the woods and play by the creek? C) Why in the world do we see greater access to technology as the salvation of civilization?
