I am not too sure if I am allowed to post a link to an excellent article (am I going to be edited ?), but anyway, here it is, for those of you who read spanish... I thought it would be in the DR1 news, but maybe tomorrow :

For those of you guys who don't read spanish, it's an article about Professor Antonio Perpi?an, the biggest Linux guru of the island.
He explains the whole deal about not paying big bucks to Microsoft, and forming dominican technicians on using Linux and then being constructive by using open source software.
I went to the "Codigo Libre" foundation's branch in Santiago and was very impressed by the level of education, awareness, and high technical skills of either Perpi?an, or other teachers, and all those young dominican adults (most in their 20's)...
For further infos : www.abiertos.org (it's the dominican GNU-Linux Portal)
Read, and tell me what you think (I might be a bit partial, since I dropped Windows, and use various Linux distros on my pc's...No viruses, no spyware...)
