Re: [libreoffice-marketing] All hospitals in capital region goes Libre

Hi :)
I might add the link to the "In the Press" page if i get time later but i would 
be a lot happier if people just added stuff to the page whenever they spot 
something worth attention.  


Grr, today i was just 5mins short of getting 1 person to try Ubuntu and 
LibreOffice but they preferred to faff around with usb-sticks rather than admit 
that Windows is hopeless at finding new network connections.  Preferring 2 hours 
work to 10mins is ridiculous especially when it means missing out on greater 
efficiencies later on.  Such is life tho.  At least i'm not in London and the 
rioting there.  On the main street here a huge amount of people showed up yday 
with flowers to show respect for one of the local community leaders.  


The 25,000 in the article is a huge scoop :))

Regards from
Tom :)

So true so true, but the most important thing to me is that its what we
could call "professional users" in a huge organization.

I did (my company Magenta), and I have a few more interesting things just
around the corner :-)
