Computers are $1000 a pop... the money has to come from somewhere. We are in a new age where "school" is much more expensive. If a school needs 100 computers, that's $100,000 extra every couple years to keep those running and up to date. That's $30,000 a year more per school than what was budgeted just 10 years ago. And then you need the network infrastructure for the Internet, you need a team of district support techs, you need the bandwidth, etc. etc. etc.
