Setting the home page to be computer, rather than user specific
I run a computer lab and would like to set the home page to be computer, rather than user specific. Is this possible ?

When you say "Computer", do you mean a common web page on the intranet (local network), or opening each computer's files as a home page?
Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values for all users.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
pref("browser.startup.homepage", "<your preferred home page>");
