The other name for this presentation is "Geek salad, with a garnish of open source" I suspect that I have over garnished the salad. I have to say there are an amazing number of low cost or free tools available. As long as you are prepared to look at the support aspects etc these are a great solution for cash strapped schools. I have also found that there are actually more useful open source educational programs than commercial one. Andrew Thanks Richard. The other name for this presentation is
