It is so stupid this concept that people have that free is bad - and I
think the only thing that will quash it is case studies that prove that
a technology that is free can be useful.

I have been developing the enterprise.kde.org site and provided a
mechanism for people to add business case studies of how they use KDE -
I think I will extend this to have case studies database for schools and
other educational facilities that use KDE.

Eventually this stupid misconception about  free == sh*t  should be dust
when people can see others making good use of free software.

Non the less, this site licence for StarOffice is a good start for those
who wish to begin a migration path to Linux. Each step is a step in the
right direction. :)
