Yes. It is not the teachers's fault. We had a college IT teacher in the
hacklab once, he explained that even if he wants to teach some free
software he can't, they are locked in a contract with microsoft by which
they can not install any other software on the machines.

He still offered live CDs and even used one of them to show them.

Women who can offer support for Ubuntu also feel more comfortable
meeting u pwith other women if that is what it takes to meet with people
who do not automatically assume we need support :-p
