quote: Many secondary schools students in the French region of Auvergne will receive CDs containing free and open source software when they return to school in September.
The project, which has been funded by the local government, will see 64,000 packs of CDs distributed to school pupils, according to Linux Arverne, a Linux user group involved in the initiative. The project aims to get students and their families more interested in free software.

Chip, chip is right. I don't see a radical shift to free and open source software...just chip away at the monopolies or rather monopoly (singular!) a little wee bit at a time.
