As per tender specification it will certainly have Linux. I am sure the version the vendor will load will be bland -devoid of most educational tools. I think whatever may be our effect in fighting proprietary software in this venture - success or failure, we can do a positive contribution. My idea is to create tool/cd/whatever_we_call_it which can add good educational software and material on these laptop. It can have free materials like books, wikipedia pages etc. It should be very simple for anybody to install it. I have created a wiki page for it. http://wiki.ilugc.in/index.php?title=Tn_laptop_package We can start the actual packaging work only on knowing which distro will be loaded and about the specification of the laptop. So we can start discussing what packages to install and specification for creating a tool which will install them all in a single click.
