According to the site, it's free but you cover cost of postage, (same as
with Suse Linux deal for schools AFAIK),

Still cheaper than MS office,

>But star office is free to schools anyway and has the support and manuals.
But I see your point.

I thought there was a £10 "site license" fee for schools. I guess a case of
cheap rather than free bear ?

you to check out the latest SkoleLinux:


Ive been using K12LTSP for a couple of years now (because its been there and
works well), but in the light of what's happened at RH HQ in terms of their
download editions, I am waiting to see what happens at K12LTSP HQ but I
guess I might be persuaded to shift. I think I am right is assuming that
SkoleLinux also has LTSP support ? Only thing is it means learning how to
install debian yes ? Oh hum more config stuff to learn.
