Red Hat is saying, "Put Red Hat on the computers and use the money you would have put torward software and give the schools more computers". If MS refuses, then the schools won't get as many computers. Then it's all over the media that MS only cares about their buck and not the schools. I bet MS will come up with some incompatibility thing with Red Hat and say they can't do it.
