I think it is more that they're tired of answering the questions "Does
it run Word?" and "Does it run Flash?"  Unfortunately that's what many
people believe a computer is good for, and what they believe that their
kids need to learn to be successful in the "real world."

They probably should have just put WINE on it and tell them "yes" but
the license fees aren't included in the price ;)  It's always nice to
say yes to something knowing that they're too cheap to take you up on
it.
