Via Slashdot, this article at NewsForge covers a library in Maryland which migrated its public computers from Microsoft to Linux, with largely happy results. "The migration seems to have been almost transparent to most of the library's regular PC users. One patron asked Dave as he was walking by one day if he had anything to do with the computers. Dave said yes, and the user thanked him for stopping the pop-up ads."
