Thank you. Mea culpa. I read that article a long time ago, so I didn't 
re-read it.

IMNSHO the most salient bit is

"<sarcasm>Microsoft thought long and hard about what should be included 
in the curriculum and after careful deliberation they advised that 
students should really learn how to use office software</sarcasm>. And 
so the curriculum was born. <sarcasm>Schools naturally searched long and 
hard for appropriate office software to teach with, and after much care 
they chose Microsoft Office</sarcasm>. So since 2000 schools have been 
teaching students Microsoft skills (Adobe skills were introduced a 
little later)."

Governments and educators long ago gave up any pretence that they were 
doing digital education. They are just providing their new digital 
masters with a growing flock of bewildered lambs who have been taught 
that this is all there is.
