I don't know these particulars, but a school I'm involved with is required to destroy unneeded computers, rather than selling them or giving them to students/parents because the government grant requires that. I think the idea is to make sure there's no fraud with school funneling free computers (or making money by selling them), but the actual result seems pretty terrible.
