steve.  i'm interested for the sake of my school.  i'm
the guy that started this thread and i'm a classroom
teacher.  i know i could make my entire district (one
prek-8 building) to switch over to Linux if i can get
these apps running.  and, of course, then other
districts would be interested also and then maybe i
could start a business helping other districts setup
linux labs and running their windows educational
software.  that would be awesome!

contact me off-list if you want or on-list.
