Microsoft tactics push India toward Linux (Linux-Watch)
[Press] Posted Jul 1, 2008 18:20 UTC (Tue) by ris
Linux-Watch looks at Linux
laptops for school children in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
"In evaluating laptop hardware, ELCOT claims to have two primary
tests. One is a "fire walk test" that requires laptops to survive being
stood and walked upon by 175-pound people. The other -- hopefully easier to
pass -- requires that they fully support Linux."
