The budget for textbooks in Texas is expected to be more than 1.4 billion dollars over the next few years for 5,600,000 students.
Ummm...
Let's see - 1,400,000,000/5,600,00=250.
A new Kindle on Amazon costs $259 with free two-day shipping.
Apparently some in San Antonio Texas have noticed this (long-term) savings with open-source materials as well.
