3500 Linuxes... or maybe Linii? Yes, Linii!

A nation-wide election took place in Greece this past Sunday (2007 November 11). Its purpose was to elect PASOK's new leader. For the politically inclined, details can be found here.

What's interesting from a technology perspective is that Linux (Xubuntu 7.10) was chosen as the OS for the computers used for the election.

Computron is proud for having prepared, distributed and having installed Linux on 3500 computers, of which 100 laptops, to facilitate the election process throughout Greece. More details here.
