" They are looking to introduce a non-standard, untested platform..."

HMM... i did not realize that there was a standard for laptops...?? untested platform..? i did not realize linux was an untested platform...

im windering how they are getting around licensing... do they expect that all donated pc's will be a dell, gateway, hp... which have that OEM licensing sticker attached...?

or do they actually use an alternative OS..or FOSS soatware..? or are they subsidized by a certain monopoly for their OS and software licenses... their website says nothing about software.... just hardware specs...
