Charlie,

What about the educational software used by schools? Are there titles 
available for Linux, or at least equivalent ones? I work a lot with my 
kids' elementary school in Scottsdale, and all the programs I have looked 
at are primarily Mac and Windows. I have not run across any Linux apps.

 << File: ATT00036.html >> Hello, I asked a friend who is an administrator 
in the Cartwright School District how to get a hold of schools with an eye 
to inviting them to the installfest. She refered me to the following URL
http://www.ade.state.az.us/sch_cntct_dir.asp which has links to hundreds of 
schools and school districts.

A while back I had communicated by email with someone who was involved in 
trying to contact schools. I lost who that was, but hopefully you will see 
this posting. I have some time on my hands in the next couple of weeks and 
would be interested in helpng to contact some schools.

I am very interested in the K12LTSP and have 2 working expierimental 
installations that I am personally using for work and will soon be able to 
set up for other users as soon as some remodeling is done at work. This 
seems like a fantastic way for schools to get real computers to their 
students.
