New Zealand schools don't usually get to choose between Distro X and Distro Y, they get what the ministry of education has got to offer them. Its great that they now have the option of Linux, but I don't think it will sell well to the administrative old ladies and accountants who tend to be the ones who make that sort of decisions at the schools. It actually comes at a good time for New Zealand Schools because the Ministry of Education has recently taken all the Student Management Packages that are used by the schools (for keeping track of students details and grades etc etc) and only approved three or four out of about 15 that were used throughout the country, so a lot of schools will be migrating anyway.
