There are some Debian-based distro's with very nice installers and things like that already. One of then is Progeny, we have Corel... The other one can be found via http://www.debianplanet.org/. Problem is that Progeny is dead now... :-/ Just install Woody as soon as it's stable. It has a nice desktop, a nice browser (Konqueror, you can even make it support things like ActiveX, so no blahs about not-supported-by-browser..), and you can install StarOffice for people who want to write something. The fact that Linux is more difficult to maintain might just be a bit of a good thing for schools. On schools the pupils seem to like to mess up everything they can, and now they can't do that anymore... And cfengine is said to be a good program for the sysop to configure lots of systems at once.
