[K12OSN] Accelerated Reader on K12LTSP

[jeremy]

I've seen the same thing.  Our district just doesn't want to put the money
out for the Web Based (SQL) Version just yet.  AR on the linux terminals is
low priority for the Administrators since we don't have the many of them.
But, I have a few teachers asking me about it so I thought I would look into
it.

Just got a marketing snail mail from Renisance yesterday. It said they'd
come up with the perfect way to run AR (and the other Accelerated
programs) on any network, including a Linux network. It is their new web
based version of the Accelerated software.

The flyer said that "all" you need to do to get AR running on your Linux
network is install a Windows2000 or 2003 server and you'll be all set.:(

I think it's safe to say that they still don't get it.
