[K12OSN] Which Windows apps stand in the way of Linux use at your school?

Mon Oct 3 12:10:32 UTC 2005

In no particular order, here are the major apps that I know about that
our schools use.  Any one of these is, sadly, considered to be a show-
stopper.

- Reader Rabbit
- KidPix
- Research In Motion's "Blackberry" software
- The VA State Standards Of Learning (SOL) exam (requires both Internet
Exploder and QuickTime--ON WINDOWS, not even Mac)
- Adobe Acrobat 7
- Adobe Photoshop
- SASIxp
