Linux.com

I find it amazing (as a high school student) how ignorant most teachers are about their computers. I've seen teachers ohh and ahh at simple web pages that I, or friends, have created. I think that if the IT professional at any given school district would be aloowed to load linux on all the machines, and if he got X working, with some sort of office suite installed (i.e. star office or open office etc.), then most teachers wouldn't even notice that much of a difference, except that it works most of the time. Schools, government, home users, I think everyone should use free software. It's cheap (duh) and relatively simple (Mandrake has a wonderful gui installer). It's just that most people wouldnt be able to cope with out their handy muliticolored "window" start button.<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:(
