 This brings up an interesting question.

 Is there ANY .edu Admin on this list that has control
 over professor OS/App disk images? My guess is the answer is
 "no" so I would suggest no need to reply  unless
 the answer is "yes". I'd be willing to summarize answers
 to make the replies a single post rather than a pile.

 Personally I am OK with that although it makes
 my job more difficult.

 Edu IT tend to have a slightly different set of problems
 than the corporate IT.
