I'm Danish, and have just read the article. It doesn't say that all schools will be making the switch to Linux. It just says that Sun is offering StarOffice for free to all schools and their students.
Which basically means, that maybe a few percent of them will run StarOffice on Windows, but I seriously doubt that a significant percentage will be switching to Linux.
On Windows I think the battle is lost to Internet Explorer, which in its newest incarnations (5.5 and 6.0) is in my opinion (as a webdeveloper) a splendid, fast and very standard compliant browser.
