An article well worth considering using as a reference when approaching
a similar school wishing to migrate to OOo and Linux (LTSP).
Detroit high school opens its desktops
[Kevin Quiggle, Newsforge, 26 May 2005]
"In 2003, John Hansknecht, the director of technology at the University
of Detroit Jesuit High School and Academy, had a tough decision to make.
The school had about a hundred older computers running Microsoft Office
97 and Windows NT, and some kind of upgrade was clearly required. It
would have been an easy decision to simply upgrade to Microsoft Office
2000, but that would have required replacing all the computers with more
powerful systems -- a large expenditure which could be better spent on
other technology needs. Hansknecht had a better idea: OpenOffice.org."
