Russian schools will get Windows 7 for free

During the struggle for Russian schools, Microsoft took the next step - it was officially announced that every school in Russia (more than 50 thousand schools) would receive Windows 7 distributions for free with the right to install the operating system not only in schools, but also on teachers' home computers.

After this step, it will be curious to know the reciprocal step of SPO supporters and supplier companies that offered it to schools.

In addition to Windows 7 itself, schools are offered teaching materials developed with the participation of Russian teachers who are members of the Creative Teachers Network and Info-Teacher communities.

UPD : in the comments, we rightly noted that the new Microsoft offer is still valid under the old program, that is, the license for the new Windows 7 will be valid until the end of 2010.
