And when you're done showing the carrot, you would do well to show them the stick. This is what one teacher, Mr. Paul Nelson at Riverdale HS, had to say regarding Microsoft's onerous licensing and what can happen to your school, even if you stay totally legal. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://archives.seul.org/seul/edu/May-2002/msg00129.html">http://archives.seul.org/seul/edu/May-2002/msg00129.html</a> --TP <div class="moz-signature">_______________________________ Do you <a href="http://www.gnu.org">GNU</a>? <a href="http://www.cmosnetworks.com">Microsoft Free since 2003</a>--the ultimate antivirus protection! </div> edwardson wrote: <blockquote cite="mid47FDF306.2080103@cscoms.com" type="cite">Hi, I'm going to present the use of Opensource software to our schools' Administrative Council in two weeks time. My administrator is very open to change. Actually our lab is already using K12LTSP. My target now is the teachers. They are still using windows and there are lots of problems with it, specially licensing issue (not that we are using pirated software, but I want them to know there are lots of open source software out there). In connection to this, I would like to know if anyone has ready made presentations to share. I found some and still looking for more. Not geared towards using ltsp, but the use of opensource software, and Linux. I'm planning to change all OSes in our school to Linux. Thanks for the help.
