yeah but our school is 3800 students alot to teach linux to, since i my self
have to study! now we do have 200 linux boxes but most kids don't touch them
because they have no clue as to what to do. I teach kids how to use the
machines and they do, they find it very intresting but i won't be able to
teach all the kids, hopefully the kids i introduce to linux will introduce
it to thier friends!
