Viable Alternative

[Dan <my.accountnow@ntlworld.com>]

Hi All,
I'm the chair of the Parents/Student organization at the infant
school (5,6 and 7 year olds) that my son attends. The school is, as
most schools are, pretty tight for money and the school system
spends a lot on microsoft stuff.

What I'm wondering, given that the children need bascially an
alphabet program, some basic math, learning their colours and such,
would debian-edu be a viable alternative to windows?

Any information would be greatfully appreciated,

Kind Regards,
Dan
