being in the education system, i agree
we get fed so much windows bushi^H^H^H^H^Hrubbish, its not funny
why they spend $600 of my (and my parents) tax money on a license
of vb (not counting the os, word etc) per computer i dont know!

its just insane, no one can tell me that a base install of your glossy
linux distros are hard to use. Whats wrong with teaching c? or how
abotu using glade? (i think thats he right one)
spend a bit more money on a few good unix teachers, and still make a 
saving, whilst teaching established standards
