@DJGummikuh It’s IMHO one of the reasons we never saw the OLPC concept being introduced in a western country. I tried at the time. But we were always destroyed by government agencies with the „it doesn’t run Microsoft Office“ argument.

@jwildeboer @DJGummikuh I cannot stress enough how much I hate MS Office and MS in general, specially when we consider the vast amounts of taxpayer money that goes to that putrid hole in government hw and sw. There should be a hunting season for lobbyists, like other invasive predator species. It's impossible to get rid of them, but they can be controlled like other predators. |
@jwildeboer yeah I also remember there was a huge outcry that it would destroy the mobile devices market and people should rather pay hundreds of Euros for Hardware they don't need to "not upset the market" 🤮
