Once again you are talking out your arse. I have seen the local curriculum
for high schools and it is all about teaching children to enter data and
create graphs with Excel, write documents with Word, create presentations
with Powerpoint and write web pages with Frontpage. Even the Advanced
Programming subject only teaches creating a simple application wit Visual
Basic. Computing is considered an unimportant subject and is given the
commensurate resources. The use of free alternatives is strongly resisted
by the Education Department.
Do tell, what are they teaching at your local high schools. If you are in
deed in Germany then I know that the teaching is rather more generic. I
however doubt that you are in Germany.

The teachers have to teach what the Department of Education tells them to
teach. This is the weak point in the system. I know of some teachers who
are not happy with the situation, but they have no choice. The majority
however have had no exposure to alternatives to the Windows and Mac.

Then you must think that you are clearly inferior. I just see things as they
are and the effects of current paths. If you can't see these things, then
you have no chance of catching problems early.

There you are, running off at the mouth again, as it is easier to throw
abuse than to counter the argument.
