Learn Ubuntu with Hackett and Bankwell
,----[ Quote ]
| In my experience, when you yank someone’s Windows workstation away from them
| and replace it with Linux, there are all sorts of little problems. These
| little problems might be easily dismissed by a Linux enthusiast, but the
| reality is that the user ought to be comfortable using the tool you’ve
| provided them, and if they’re not comfortable they won’t like it. A harsh,
| arbitrary transition does more to damage the experience of using Linux — and
| by association Free Software — than does a gradual, planned, and supported
| transition.

| I've often lamented how few schools in the UK use free software, and how
| difficult it is to break the lock that Microsoft has on the entire
