Switching To Open Source Completely- One Step at a time.

| Of course there is more. I began to use Linux and found some applications 
| that seemed hard to use. I hadn't done Video Editing with Linux, but I am now 
| beginning to do that too. I like using free formats like .OGG for Music and 
| Theora for Video. I also found that these formats were good with high quality 
| and a decent file size. I thought these formats were great, but many Media 
| Players, like Windows Media Player wouldn't play them. Most people don't 
| usually install more Media Players on their systems, unless they needed 
| Quicktime or Real.       
| 
| We also use Linux in the form of Edubuntu at our writing labs, and the school 
| uses the software that I have already mentioned. By using free software we 
| can save money so that we can replace our old hardware.

| [Via Google Translate: In more than 50% of schools pilot regions, where the
| scheduled installation of free software packages (PSPO), distributions have
| been installed.
|
| So far a total of PSPO installed in 572 schools in the republic of Tatarstan,
| Perm Territory, and Tomsk region (of the planned 1084).]
