MLAs to go e-way with pre-loaded linux laptops
,----[ Quote ]
| The MLAs in the State are going e-way like their counterparts in other
| States, but with a difference. The 141 MLAs in the Kerala Legislative
| Assembly will be provided with pre-loaded GNU/Linux laptops, giving a clear
| indication that the State is still bonded to the idea of free software. The
| Kerala Legislative Assembly website has published the tender for
| pre-installed open source purchase with Linux Ubuntu certification.

Saving a Billion Using Open Source
,----[ Quote ]
| A leading bank in India saved Rs 100 crore by moving from MS Office to Open
| Office. It is simple mathematicsâif MS Office costs Rs 11,000 per user, and
| the organization has 1,00,000 desktops, the company would save a cool Rs 110
| crore on licensing costs if it moved to Open Office. Even if we budget Rs 10
| crore for training and support costs, the company would end up saving Rs 100
| crore.
