On Thursday, September 17th, 2015 at 23:00, [«Mastri Caravaggini» Comprehensive Institute of Caravaggio (BG)][1] is "free": we have installed, configured and deployed the computer lab with **Linux** and **free software.**

|
Tonight a shared vision came true, a vision that started at the beginning of 2015 when the teacher that also managed the lab expressed the desire to switch to **Linux** and _opensource_ software.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
After some meetings aimed at focusing the goals, the solution was presented to the Didactic Manager, who understood the significance of this project and gave his approval to the migration; the design phase began.
|
|
|
|
The school found another non-profit association that donated all the PCs and making structural laboratory cabling within a large classroom made available by the school.
|
|
|
|
A member of the [Bergamo Linux Users Group][2] donated a server by withdrawing it from a company he worked for, because it was no longer used.
|
|
|
|
Finally we have a perfectly working laboratory with:
|
|
|
|
* 1 server
|
|
* 1 PC for the teacher
|
|
* 24 PCs for the students divided into 4 "islands" with 6 PCs each
|
|
|
|
Now the lab is fully operational. In a few days, we will also start to train the the teachers.
