Our PC instruction happens mostly on FreeBSD because those of us who are active are BSD-oriented, but we sometimes get assistance from our NMLUG Linux guys. As it is now, we have 2-3 guys at the school every Friday morning, and we've gotten substantial donations from other geeks and from some of the parents. The school people are absolutely blown sky-high by this, but they know it's good and they're bending over backward to help make it happen.
