Can you elaborate on what additional value/convenience is provided by the different technologies you mentioned? I'm not defending Haas or something, just curious - I'm very happy with the stuff Haas has, so it's interesting to know what am I possibly missing.

I thought the facilities were fine when I visited. Maybe it just wasn't that crowded that day. Although maybe I should say they suck since they dinged me 
Of the schools I visited, I would put facilities in this order:
Chicago GSB/Harvard (tie - different styles, both great)
UCLA
Berkeley
Michigan (although these three are pretty close to me, and I was surprised that Michigan is dropping so much money on their new facility, the old one still seems nice)

Maybe I am not so picky since my undergrad, UW, has the worst B school building I have seen.

What's the difference between Sony's first 13" Trinitron and a new 46" LCD Bravia? Not much if you enjoy watching PBS. Similar for the use of a 10 year old projector versus Interactive whiteboards/Doc Cams/monitors. There's little difference outside of the clarity if instructors are using clear overhead sheets for static objects. That being said, newer technology would be required to display moving objects, etc.
The bottom line is that you would like to see schools keep up with technology as well as with its peers. It simply shows an unwillingness to invest into certain areas of the program. You can pay all you want for the most brilliant profs, but to turn a blind eye to aesthetics turns certain people off. Not all, but I did have conversations with some fellow candidates at SS and many noticed the same.
