Another win in the battle to take back lives from the corporate dark horse called Microsoft. I came across this report in my GoogleReader and thought it fit to reproduce here as this blog is pro open source by nature.

At TechCrunch they reported the news that the New South Wales Dept. of Education had decided to give Outlook/Exchange the boot and go with GMail for all it’s students. The faculty, which had also been using the M/$ product will instead go with an email application based off the Department’s own servers.

Google again shows the world that it can do better than M/$ who seems to think that sucking the money and souls out of it’s clients/customers is the way to go.

The story on TechCrunch is here and the original story is here.

Leave a comment to show your opinion either here or on the TechCrunch posting. Are you pro M/$ or pro open source?
