Windows in Schools, Open Source at Home
,----[ Quote ]
| If you think FOSS is for Linux then think again and start Googling (or
| Binging). I have a Linux box (Mint 7 KDE 4, try it), a Mac and a Vista Dell
| (my Wife's, honest). I use the same FOSS on all three.
|
| xFOSS simply allows all students, schools and teachers to access the same
| high quality facilities for free.
|
| The Learn at Home generation may fare well or poorly, either way simple
| fairness implies that they will use xFOSS at home. My feeling is that
| separating teaching and learning away from other aspects of schools will be
| very effective. It will be an interesting experiment.

Is GNU/Linux slowly creeping into rural France, or is it just to cut costs?

| This year they will be upgrading, installing WiFi and starting to use the
| laptops properly, something they didnât do last year. Having spoken to this
| particular friend, I was pleasantly surprised and relieved to see that this
| little DELL Mini 9 was running Ubuntu Linux. Now the council obviously wanted
| to cut costs when preparing these, so they put Ubuntu Linux on them. I
| explained to this friend and her brother what Ubuntu was and the benefits but
| they didnât want to accept it.
