,----[ Quote ]
| India-based government information and communication technologies (ICT) 
| provider The Assam Electronics Development Corporation (AMTRON) needed to 
| provide every Assam student who achieved 60 per cent or higher in their 
| school leaving exams with a free PC. AMTRON needed to comply with strict 
| budgets to deliver reliable, easy-to-use PCs to thousands of students. It 
| finally decided on a range of PC hardware running Ubuntu Desktop Edition. It 
| delivered 14,000 Ubuntu-based PCs in 2008 and is in the process of delivering 
| a further 14,000 Ubuntu-based PCs in 2009. The cost-effective Ubuntu Desktop 
| Edition solution is free, easy to use and very popular with the students of 
| Assam.

| 2008 the decision was made to use only Ubuntu for all new workstations. A
| year on shows this has been a great success with happy users, a better
