The register:

"according to Register sources [the deal] is already causing some schools to cancel open source projects "in case they upset the sponsor [i.e. Microsoft] or the DfES failed their bid.""

I wondered if Mark Shuttleworth might be interested in making a similar offer, and then realised he can't, since he could supply software for every school in the country and it would still be counted as valueless. But is there anything equivalent someone in his position (ie. more likely to impress rich-people-friendly ministers than Ian ;-) could do?
