A school district in Ohio is opting to go with Linux rather than upgrading all of their existing systems to Windows XP. Covered in a local paper http://www.thisweeknews.com/
“For a school district, this issue is compounded by the volume of computers it has to maintain. However, Dr. Anne Hyland, director of curriculum and instruction for Bexley City Schools, said the district is switching to a new operating system that will save the taxpayers a lot of money.
Hyland said Bexley will switch all of its computers over to Linux, an open-source operating system. Open source means that the code for the software is available for anyone to procure and manipulate, unlike Microsoft operating systems.”
Would be very interesting to see how this project ultimately turns out.
