I am a big fan of the This Week in Google podcast. The panel is very tech savvy, but also diverse enough to offer interesting insights on tech issues. In a follow-up to the Apple education event, the panel considers the benefits and limitations of the various large companies interested in providing resources to the education market. In comparing companies, the panel does not offer a particularly positive perspective on Apple. They propose that if Apple really wanted to help K12 education, the company would offer price cuts on hardware sold to schools. The discussion and consideration of the contributions of different tech companies is interesting.
