,----[ Quote ]
| This perhaps was important since there was no predisposition towards a 
| proprietary OS which could have only helped in the adoption Linux Ubuntu. 
| Another cost saving attempt was made by opting for refurbished PCs however in 
| government institutions, there is no practice of refurbished hardware

Will the NSW Govt put Linux in schools?

,----[ Quote ]
| The NSW Government's release this week of an expressions of interest tender
| to give low-cost laptops to every senior public school student in NSW is a
| big step, but will these systems be Windows or Linux?
|
| Rolling out from 2009 onwards, the program will mean a whole generation of
| students will be a great deal more technically literate, which can only be a
| good thing. However, the cost per device (only $500) is going to be a
| challenge for vendors to meet.
