Dear all,
I have came across interesting article[1] about school that switched to Linux. What is interesting is interaction with community that in moment was not too flattering, but again not too bad. :) Anyway i would propose some kind of article for first page of opensuse.org or i do not know exactly how/where - "How to help you switch / how to get volunteers to help you". I think that we have a lot of people who are willing to help even going on site and do consulting or even working with them.

Thanks for that link. It was a very interesting read. It was good to note that the person that had problems with the Forum also admitted that their questions were not well written. A second problem is that they often fail to provide requested input in the proper format even after several requests. I agree that some additional documentation for beginners would be useful. The second case study showed how effective has been the brainwashing of the public by Microsoft and Apple. The individuals that paid a nominal fee for OpenOffice continued to use it, but the ones that got it free stopped using it and purchased Microsoft Office even when their usage was for simple letters. I have no idea what it will take for people to understand open-source projects.
