I don't see a huge difference in what you need to teach something
and what you need to do it in practice. Plenty of office workers
could live without Microsoft Office and that will continue to
increase as OpenOffice improves. Also note that the package above
includes 'rdesktop', a native Windows Terminal Services client so
a Windows machine could be shared for anything that might not be
available on Linux yet.

I think XFS or Reiser would be a better fit for running
qmail and its one-message-per-file format. Has anyone
timed creating/deleting thousands of files under the
different filesystems available? I recall seeing a benchmark
program called 'postmark' some time ago to emulate mailer
activity.
