[Lias] NT Government Selects Linux and IBM for School System

[Neale Banks]

And there's even some teacher-training too:

  "A challenge facing the LATIS program is the fact that the PCs and
   servers will be used in a variety of locations, from remote rural
   schools with a single teacher, to large urban schools with over 1,000
   students. CSM has designed a non-technical process and set of tools to
   enable teachers to perform first-level support for the PCs and
   servers. As part of the project, participating teachers will be
   trained by CSM, resulting in the award of Level III certificates in
   IT."
