looks like we have to set up a demo cybercafe with only OSS and see how far we can get. Would be cheaper than buying a satellite anyway. Anyone game for this? We should mint money
I agree . This would be a good idea. Perhaps , some educational institutes , companies , Linux distribution companies or even cybercafe associations may be ready to sponsor ( or help by providing old computers ).
We should not worry much about software X not working or hardware Y not compatible . First get the passing marks then look out for cent percent.
Atleast in India , in most cases people adapt themselves to the software and rarely the software adapts to their needs.They become aware of various features when they see it in the latest release. I am sure the learning curve for basic things like browsers , messengers etc in Linux would not be too high ... people will adapt to it , if they do not have any choice.
