Looks good.  You might want to cite a study from BECTA
http://publications.becta.org.uk/display.cfm?resID=25908 

The total cost of ownership (hardware + software + trainng + maintenance
costs) dropped anywhere from 20% to 75%.  A 50% drop means you can
double the number of computers for the exact same cost.

Good luck!
