Hi all, I am helping a disability organisation I am associated with to setup a small network of 10 Linux, three Windows and a Linux server. We can't afford the needed hardware or the licences to go to XP and MS Office etc, so we are looking at Linux alternatives. However it needs to maintain a familiar Windows look and feel. I am looking for suggestions for the following list of requirements.
OS Lindows Office APps Open Office and ABIWord Email Yahoo Mail using Web Browser Photo Manipulation GIMP ACDSEE (IMage viewing and slideshows) ????????????? Publisher (They like the templates) ????????????? Printer HP2100 Plus we will need to connect Scanners, USB Digital Camera Any other suggestions or thoughts are welcome. I am setting up a Samba domain and would like to make it an AD look alike, I did read about this somewhere but am having trouble finding it again. PS, this is in the Hornsby area of Sydney if anyone wants to help -- Simon Bryan IT Manager OLMC Parramatta -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
