Z:gnu-www-ja-microsoft--7e7ba2-Other Microsoft practices spec/en

Other Microsoft practices specifically harmful to the adoption of free software are the ones designed to build up social inertia that obstructs migration to GNU/Linux. For instance, when Microsoft &ldquo;donates&rdquo; copies of Windows to schools, it converts these schools into tools for implanting a dependence on Windows. There are indications that Microsoft systematically plans these activities  as a campaign against the adoption of GNU/Linux.
