The pithiest observation in the piece was that so many students mostly use their expensive Macs to download music. Sadly, too true. That’s a pretty accurate image of today’s college student . . . iPod in the pocket, cell phone in one hand and lowfat latte in the other.

Who is paying that freight? Not the kid—no sympathy here for the parents. I am a college prof and can tell you that when jr (m/f) gets a low freshman grade at midterms, mommy/daddy is howling on the e-m or the phone. Despite the fact that jr has a police rec with alcohol...and is considered an adult. Put the load where it belongs.

Hey I’ll have you know I use a Sony Viao and a Zune. I wouldn’t touch an ipod with a ten foot pole. And I take my coffee blacker than my metal.
