We've talked about Linux for other computers, but we're

<p class="MsoNormal">I think this was covered a bit not too long
ago, but I’m wanting to see how many libraries out there are
using Ubuntu on public computers/catalogs. Also what has your

XP computers as catalog Kiosks and run Ubuntu on them.
Thoughts, comments?<o:p></o:p></p>
