We will start to show schools in the country what Ubuntu can do for a network - unbeatable uptime, responsive services, free as in price, freedom as in contracts (unlike the lock-in contracts that Microsoft offers many schools), and free as in libre. We also plan to demonstrate the power of the LTSP, though perhaps it needs some time to mature. ## The following is the draft line inserted as first cell...
