....I hate to read anything by anyone connected to any distribution; or even 
any user/user group, that Linux will never be "the desktop." With "license v. 
2" MS has shown they have the arrogance and the potential to cut their own 
throats where it counts. With teachers and especially with kids.

My own 17 year old son has a teacher at his high school that is a "'Draker" 
and I feel having an instructor such as that (while probably rare) will give 
him an enormous advantage in future. Having dear old dad "Windows free" 
doesn't hurt either I s'pose.

The article is worth a read, and I do hope the management team at Mandrake 
and other distributions take heed. This isn't the first example of the 
bullying schools are subject to, and I'm certain it won't be the last.
