Maybe we should first concentrate on propagating GNU/linux in that way that
at least some of the pc's have it installed? Telling someone to switch a few
pc's to "try it out" and give students the chance to use it, instead of the
entire computer class. In my experience, after that GNU/Linux sells itself.
