"Microsoft says that the incident has nothing to do with them, but it
appears that Russian schools in the area are so scared about being shipped
off to a Siberian Gulag, that they are buying Linux gear instead.

Schools in the Perm region will soon quit buying software from commercial
companies, said the region’s Education Minister Nikolay Karpushin. The
announcement was made in line with the report on ensuring
'license purity' in the region’s schools.

According to Karpushin, schools would start using freely distributed
software like the Linux OS, Russky office and Open office desktop apps,
Ekho Moskvi reports.

The flavour of Linux being used will be one of the cheap localised Russian
Linux distributives in Russia. "


The harder the IP Cartel pushes the more people will seek to leave their
clutches altogether.
