[OS:N:] [Fwd: RE: [tech-geeks] Operations Master]

First off.  Anyone who says that this isn't a war that Microsoft isn't
fighting on the front lines doesn't know what they are talking about.

This is a guy from Microsoft who for more than a year has been on this
tech-geeks list for years paid by Microsoft to solve problems, AT NO
COST, for schools.

He is almost certainly getting paid a six figure income to do this and
travel around to schools to sing praises about Microsoft.

I have yet to see one Red Hat or any other representative on that list. 
Nevertheless, people every year try and choose Linux for select needs in
their schools.

There are people on this list that are active on that list.  

As open source advocates we may not get paid six figure incomes to
expose the virtues of open source, but, we are on the side of what is
right and decent.  

If you want to contribute to the open source movement, join the
tech-geeks list and help these school tech cordinators because it's the
right thing to do.

and because it will stick it right in the nose of m$!

-Chris

P.S.  Please don't join and be rude.  That would not help at all.

If you need it, let me know.  I won't lose a single box to Linux this
year if can help it!  ;-)

Hang loose, I did a thing with DNS, I'm waiting to see if that fixes it.

"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty
when the Government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are
naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded
rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment
by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." - Supreme Court
Justice Louis Brandeis, Olmstead v. U.S. (1928)
