I thought I'd add my experiences/opinion to this thread.

Here at Oklahoma University, they wouldn't sell me the 2 floppy LC.  They
said it was for institutional purchase only.  I think that if you find a 
computer store selling them, they are probably not following Apple's edu
rules strictly.

I think they should have let the 2 floppy for purchase, but then you will
always have the cheap-os that will try to run off two floppies.  When
they finally get frustrated at the speed, they conclude not that they should
have bought the hard drive, but that the Macintosh sucks.

Sort of reminds me of the Monty Python thing with the logic professor and
his wife that when given the two facts of Mackrel (or some fish) are fish and
and all fish swim, she concludes that "Mackrel can't fly, or more often, that
I don't love her anymore."
