Hi List and Paul,

I was just looking at the Redlands College website, Paul and was
interested in why the current setup is the way it is?

It seems that you are locked into Mac software, although you can run
Linux on iMacs.

Just about all the packages listed have OSS counterparts that are quite
mature and user-friendly.

Any plans to migrate, at least, this programme to full Linux? Would have
to save quite a bit on hardware and licencing.

Ben.
