Teams will not be restricted to using the Classmate as their Driver Station as long as certain criteria are met and all relevant rules are followed. More details to follow in the 2012 Game Manual when it is released.

It's statements like this that tend to grind my gears. What would be the harm in releasing the requirements for a driver station computer? I'm sure lots of teams would gladly purchase a netbook or the like on Black Friday for a bargain price rather than have to wait until after Jan 7th and pay MSRP + 40%.
We were told to buy pool noodles back in July or August, when they were readily accessible to teams and even on clearance; I was hoping this trend of releasing pertinent information without revealing too much would continue.
