My cousin sis who lives in some remote part of India has heard of Linux

how do you define 'remote part of India'? There *is* civilisation outside the metros - in fact one wonders whether there is civilisation *inside* the metros

He simply mentioned 'remote part of India' NOT 'a part of India that yet lacks civilization'.

I recently went to a remote part of India (Uttar Pradesh someplace) that has only one school and 3 computers (with pirated XP not linux).. and was quite a civilized place and guess what they don't know linux and are not even aware of a concept called 'Unix/Linux'.
