This is exactly why public organizations should never be reliant on proprietary platforms. If those tools ran in Linux, the solution would be simple: burn some live CDs. Now anyone with a machine that has software more up to date than this SoftTest can handle just needs to reboot to a school-provided live CD. I don&#x27;t think I&#x27;d have much of a problem doing that if I could prevent that bit of proprietary crap from mucking up my laptop. Sadly I don&#x27;t think that option is readily available (or cost effective) for windows or mac.
