| I met with the President of Metasys, a Brazilian company that has Linux-based 
| servers, desktops, and software in thousands of schools, businesses, and 
| homes throughout Latin America, Africa, and Europe. Metasys is running on 
| 350,000 desktops in Brazil alone. And guess what? People pay for it because 
| it’s good; it has a great ecosystem of server, software, and management 
| products; and because it’s still drastically cheaper than Windows.
