That's a good idea, now he uses the flash drive to bring the saved document.
I will check it out and try with Windows to make sure that he knows how to
make it work (In case they are using Mac at school does it work the same way
than with Windows?)
He actually had been promoting Ubuntu, he made 2 essays on Ubuntu (with a
little help) as homework, the subject was free to choose.

Thanks
