Which works but then you've got volunteers coming in to work on the 
machines who don't know KNOPPIX or that funny LINUX stuff - they (I 
cojecture) need to fill out Word docs, print forms and so on with 
minimal / no training.  Everyone savys Windows.

Yah, I know, OpenOffice, GhostView.  I'm not saying you're wrong, you're 
right.
