[school-discuss] StarOffice in Edu.



I read today in a release on zdnet "Sun expands StarOffice giveway" (see link 
below) that Microsoft has 90% of the office suite market in Edu. 

I'm curious why a free product like StarOffice is not more prevalent in 
education. Is it an issue of support? Usability? Laziness (people don't want 
to switch ffrom MS Office)? Or other?

I appreciate your thoughts.
