As Lyttelton West has already gone down this path maybe they have
already done a lot of this work. If not, it would be good to see the
resources that have been put together (using public money) for Microsoft
products and convert them to being based on open source products. Even
though I currently don't have a lot of time I would be keen to help with
this - particularly where Open Office could be used.

Cheers, Ian

I do not think that much "conversion" is necessary.

I have a border who uses MS products at school and has no problems using the
LTSP client and OpenOffice at home.

A problem which may apply to schools is with multimedia. Using old boxes
with low spec graphics cards might be limiting for presentations. Also I do
not know how successful others have been but I still do not have sound
working over LTSP.
