What kind of computer equipment should agencies transfer to schools and educational nonprofit organizations?
The Executive Order defines “educationally useful federal equipment” as computers (Windows based PCs and Apples) and related peripheral equipment. Computer software is also included where software vendors permit the transfer of licenses [Executive Order Section 4]. Agencies and private sector companies need to check with each software vendor or licensor for permission to transfer specific software. However, operating systems are a component of a computer’s hard drive and should remain with the computers. Also, note that computer equipment availability varies.
