First, doing what is right is doing what is right regardless of Holts financial situation.
The schools don't pay per machine, they pay a site licence, which I'll have you know is very reasonably priced. (Although I'm sure Hikaru is right that they make more money from books) That said, if I was a student there is no way I would go without a copy of the language the class is using. You should bug the powers that be at your school to get distribution rights for Turing, then your school can charge some small amount (we charge $2) to recoup the cost over a few years. |

eh... try naming something that Turing 4.0.5 can't do, that 4.0.3 (educational edition? I was not aware of such) can. |

I'm not sure if that's something you'd want to brag about on this forum |

Ya... except even in the highest possible 'enriched' program I doubt more than a few people in North America knew what cos/tan/sin are in grade 9. I'm pretty sure that starts in grade 10/11. |

I knew in grade 8. Has education really gotten that bad since I was in school? |

actually one of my old friends used to be reading up on trig in grade 8.. Though he was trying to keep up with Russian educational system, which is quite ahead.
Here I think we're introduced to the subject in grade 10.. |

Ya, I know that - in Europe and Asian countries they are at least 2 grades ahead of us... How the heck did you know it in grade 8, or did you learn it for fun *hmmrph*? All I know is that at least in the past 5 years it hasn't been like that... |

Alright then, I was wrong... You must have very smart schools. In my school no matter what you do, you don't learn cos/sin/tan in grade 9. What we learnt that was ahead was basic calculus (quadratics). |
