Region in Spain Abandons Windows, Embraces Linux

"Already, Vazquez de Miguel said, more than 10,000 desktop machines have been 
switched, with 100,000 more scheduled for conversion in the next year. 
Organizers regard the drive as a low-cost way to bring technology to the 
masses in the impoverished region."

Quite an interesting read and hopefully a sign of things to come.
