Teodomiro Cayetano López, Extremadura's CIO (Chief Information Officer), confirmed on January 23rd that the administration of Spain’s autonomous region will move all their desktop PCs to Debian Linux.

The Extremadura administration's computers will receive the same Debian Linux OS used by the region's public health services and schools for about five years now, LinEx.

The installation of the Debian-based distro on all 40,000 computers will take about three months, during which it will also be prepared to be deployed on all the offices of the regional government, which will be completed in about one year.
