Posted by timothy on from the mas-por-favor dept.

Aloriel writes "This weekend the Spanish newspaper El Mundo is distributing a CD with the Linux distribution Guadalinex, the official distribution of Andalusia. There are other official distributions likeLinex, MAX, LLIUREX that in a few will replace nearly all Microsfot software and create new projects in order to use only Free Software in schools, hospitals and administration."

    This is a fantastic idea. Better still if somebody gets it done in a country that doesn't have the broadband penetration that Spain does.

    Mozilla should should do the same with FireFox. I mean, what can it cost to print CD's now a days?

      The bigger cost is getting the paper to distribute them for you.

    Redundant? It's the first post!

    Another post about the horribly written-up summary was also marked redundant.

    Someone should take the moderators toys away if they're not going to be used properly.
