I'm just curious as to why the "tech person" wants to switch to Linux. I
know there are many tech reasons, such as those mentioned in Brig's post,
but if you are teaching young children, are you not limiting the
availability of appropriate software applications? This sounds as if
technology interests are trumping educational interests in this one.
Will you have a voice in the decision making?
