Disaster for Linux in the making?Disaster for Linux in the making?Posted Feb 8, 2007 1:05 UTC (Thu) by pjhacnau (subscriber, #4223)Parent article: Russian Schools to Switch to Linux After Microsoft Piracy Case (MosNews)
What worries me is the last para:
"Teachers are not that happy about it. Apparently not many of them know much about Linux and there are no specialists around to teach them."
Are we going to see another article in 3-5 years saying how all the schools are switching back to Windows because "Linux is too complicated and unsupported" ?

Don't worry teachers - 3-5 years in jail is enough
Disaster for Linux in the making? Posted Feb 8, 2007 7:35 UTC (Thu) by sasha (subscriber, #16070) [Link] I can't say anything about schools here in Russia, but I know that some Universities are switching to Linux on most of there computers now. And they really do it because of Ponosov case.
The real problem is absence of publicly-announced Linux distro for Russian schools. I hope that ALT Linux will fix this problem soon. Only after that we can speak about schools switching to Linux.
