Userful y ThinNetworks han sido seleccionados para implementar el mayor proyecto de máquinas virtuales de escritorio mundial. Nada menos que 356.800 puestos informáticos con Linux en 5.560 escuelas brasileñas.
La iniciativa promovida por el Ministerio de Educación brasileño, marca un nuevo registro por su dimensión, bajo coste y ahorro energético. Cada máquina costará el equivalente a 50 dólares (sin incluir monitor o teclado), usa hardware estándar de PC incluyendo tarjetas gráficas de bajo coste y hubs de puertos USB o audio y está gobernado por “Userful Destok”, sistema basado en la distro Linux de Red Hat, Fedora, que ofrece una plataforma de computación multiusuario robusta y potente, incluyendo las aplicaciones más populares del software libre.
Con esta iniciativa consiguen reducir costes, junto con la migración al software libre de administraciones y universidades o a la facilitación de accesos a Internet y computadoras para familias menos pudientes, están convirtiendo a Brasil en todo un ejemplo mundial a la hora de diseñar proyectos de educación y desarrollo tecnológico bajo plataformas alternativas abiertas.

It took me a few months, because I dedicated 8 minutes some days....I think it's intended to take you 8 hours. eHome America was the provider I chose, and I got a voucher for the free workshop from a non-profit that provides resources for new buyers. Counseling - After you complete the workshop, bring your certificate of completion and meet with a counselor. I chose to go to the same agency that gave me the voucher, because they already knew...

It's a romantic full moon, when Pedro said, "Hey, mamacita, let's do Weeweechu." Oh no, not now, let's look at the moon!" said Rosita. Oh, c'mon baby, let's you and I do Weeweechu. I love you and it's the perfect time," Pedro begged. "But I wanna just hold your hand and watch the moon." replied Rosita. Please, corazoncito, just once, do Weeweechu with me." Rosita looked at Pedro and said, "OK, one time, we'll do Weeweechu." Pedro grabbed his guitar and they both sang..... "Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, Weeweechu a Merry Chris tmas, Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year." MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!! I just got this from a colleague, Feliz Navidad!!
