Interesting article. I somewhat agree with him. I don't see a reason for High Schools to use Macs. I can see a need for some Macs, perhaps for a video production class, but it makes sense to have the majority of the computers running Windows. My college has Windows labs and Mac labs, more of the former, and it seems to work pretty well.

Someone posted this to me and I am just wondering what it means?

"News may not be posted by unauthorized Users." - UNKNOWN

Rules for writing as long as you quote and don't pass it off as your own and give proper credit where due what makes me unauthorized to post a news article plus link to article and my comments on article?

Just an honest question and I would like a genuine answer. Please be able to back yourself up. Thanks for your time and I look forward to comments.

I will chalk it up as this person hasn't a clue what they are talking about. Thanks for the advice though but I know what I am and am not authorized to do.

Full articles can be quoted just as long as a link to the source of the article is included with post. Failure to do so is unacceptable and considered plagiarism.

Here is a nice Google article pertaining to Mac:
