11 y.o. pees on 36k worth of school's Macbooks

[Capt Caveman]

One? Uh, no, read the article, better yet read the freaking topic title.



But why does the article say it's going to cost Massachusetts $36k? I know Mechanicsburg may look like Massachusetts at first glance, but how do you miss the PA?

And supposedly, they were being charged at the time.

Too bad it wasn't a CPS school that I had worked at few years ago.

 

[uclaLabrat]

Thats quite a feat....

Enough urine to wreck 36k worth of computers, he must've piled them up or something or drank juice all day in preparation....

Please, $36K worth of macs is like 2 macbooks.

[Mr. Pedantic]

lol. It's so funny watching you people being stupid and misled about urine.

 

[Wyndru]

What's the big deal, the kid peed on one MacBook.

😀

 

[airdata]

They're probably just claiming 36k worth of damages so they can have free macs. You ca hose off a mac and it'll probably be fine after it dries.

All kidding aside, they're obviously quoting original purchase price, not depreciated value.

And yes, the charging carts do cost a few grand, and a short in the internal wiring is an expensive repair.

 

[nageov3t]

so he peed on a macbook, huh?

Why the FUCK does an elementary school need $36k worth of MacBooks?

A computer lab with some cheap desktops running MICROSOFT WINDOWS (you know, the operating system that 95% of all businesses run) would be more than sufficient.

Apple is insanely good with marketing.

whoosh

 

[Texashiker]

urine is sterile, just let it dry and clean it up

Urine is not sterile, that is a myth.

 

[dr150]

Kid was sent by PA's finest, Sandusky, to destroy evidence.

 

[ichy]

That kid should be beaten.

IIRC your own urine is only sterile to you.

Lol, something is either sterile or it isn't.

 

[blankslate]

slave labor for the kid until he pays off the school district.

seriously the school chose apple products.... it was karma.

They probably have a computer lab too. The more important computers get, the more labs you need, to get everybody the lab time they want. Eventually, you run out of space and the mobile carts are cheaper than building additions onto the buildings.

As for Mac vs. PC, well... some of it's marketing. Yes. Some of it's other things.

[shortylickens]

I got over my pee fetish long before 11.
Kid must be mildly retarded. Why is he allowed out of the house sans escort?

What the fuck is a school doing with macbooks? "Heh kids today we are going to teach you how to use an OS about 1% of computer users will ever come across in a work environment"

some teachers are terrified of mice with more than one button.
