Hello Linux folkz,
It's a good article about predatory practice of M$, but isn't it true
that most of the OR school districts are using Mac's rather than PC's?
My daughter is in the first grade in Barnes school, and they have some
computer introduction classes which are being taught using Mac's
only.
Just recently this school got rid of almost all remaining PC's.
When I asked their network engineer about this matter, he replied that
the school district got a pretty good deal with Apple. That is why
they are building primarely Mac's networks within this school
district.
On my comment that most of the industry uses rather PC's than Mac's he
just shroughed his shoulders.

Ask American engineers how they created nuclear bombs, super sonic
jets, rockets and hover crafts.
First three inventions they stole from Germans, last one from Soviets.
As well as an idea about space flights.
