There are still plenty of old people that are clueless. My mother is a public school librarian and she recently went to a librarians meeting about the nook color presented by another school's librarian who bought a bunch of them. I asked her if they talked about rooting it and she had no clue what I was talking about. I asked her if they talked about the e-ink nook and she had no clue what I was talking about either. I don't know if it is kosher with the school districts to root, but the issue should be discussed.

Personally I think it is a waste of tax dollars since they barely know how to operate these things let alone use them as instructional tools. At least it is not as bad as the librarian who bought a large number of iPads and then sent out a message on their email list "Purchased x# of iPads.....now what?"
