OK!
No, there is no such thing as a free lunch.  Every student that buys a computer
at a discount and then learns how to use it is one less person that will have
to be trained to use a computer by Corporate America.  Training is expensive,
and if Corporate America can get the University's to train thier students to
use a computer by offering discounts to the University's students, faculty,
and staff then Corporate America will save that much time and money in the 
future.

I include Faculty and Staff in the discounts because if they do not know what
to do with a computer, they will not be able to teach it to the students.
