Yes, I am sure that almost the exact same thing was posted here not too long ago, In a similar story about Microsoft. I remeber it well because I thought it was a very good analogy.
my god, that there is even any discussion over whether microsoft is a monopoly boggles the mind. of course they want you to buy it preinstalled, heck at most electronics/computer stores, you cant even buy a computer without winblows er.. i mean windows preinstalled. oh and look, they have a built in dv editor, what, a year after apple released imovie? microsoft tries to make their software smarter than their users, and it ends up getting in the way, and sucking. blech.
It's probably true that most school admins aren't the best in the buisness, but at my school, the administrator is a very open-minded guy. I told him about linux, and he was very enthusiastic and even let me install it on some of the schools computers. I will be very happy to tell him about this project.
