Yeah, we had to go through proxy servers, can't install stuff, hell I got banned from using computers because I put a couple of my files on the student drive for a friend to use and APPARENTLY we weren't meant to be able to do that and I was "hacking". Three day suspension and never allowed to use the school computers again.
Yes, we had a global student drive but the STUDENTS are not allowed to put files on them. You have to ask a teacher to.
It also frustrated me because you had a loving 20" widescreen monitor - SET TO 800x600. Yes, a widescreen monitor but they decided to use a 4:3 resolution - and a tiny one at that. I actually got a migraine from using the school computers for a double period (that's two hours) and the school's nurse said that "it's not possible". Yes, it's certainly not possible to strain your eyes reading horribly stretched, pixellated text for two hours of mandatory work.
Not to mention we couldn't use CD drives or USB or anything else. You'd have to go to a teacher to log onto their computer to copy a file from your USB drive for school work.
Now this is INCREDIBLY awkward when the only USB drive you have, is shared, and your brother decides to save a heap of research on it, and then Explorer decides to go into thumbnail mode.
I'm so glad I dropped out of school in these respects. Although I would like to go back so I can get my HSC.
