-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Man-wai Chang I have yet to hear anything from Hong Kong Government on education and open-sourced software. On the other hand, maybe I should persuade my sister to let her daughter use Linux first. If she couldn't do her homework with it, then I buy a Vi$ta. No virus found in this outgoing message.
