If a state decides to introduce RPis in all classrooms, I suspect that they could get a nice deal.

Also the entire purpose of the Raspberry Pi project is education. I'm certain they would work with anyone using them for that purpose.

Education and a 1:1 program are vastly different usage models.

You're not going to be able to take a Rasperry Pi, a monitor keyboard and mouse home with you in your backpack to do your homework on.

You could take home a pi, keyboard, and mouse though. Assuming you have a TV you can plug your pi into.
