Thanks for the advice.  I'd like to avoid this, because I want to leave
the students with the impression that they have the tools to do their
own programming for their own computers when they finish... but at least
it's an option that lets Mac users have a working environment of some
sort.  I've never had any problems with the Windows installation of the
HP, and I'm knowledgeable enough to help with Linux, so I'm not worried
about those.
