By centralizing all the school’s software on a limited number of servers, K12LTSP can offer both security (only a few servers to watch over) and convenience (no need to reinstall hundreds of Windows machines to upgrade or enhance the software).通过集中所有学校的软件数量有限的服务器,可提供K12LTSP安全(只有少数几个服务器观看以上)和方便(无需重新安装数以百计的Windows机器升级或加强软件) 。 Each client machine controls the display, mouse, and keyboard, while all of the user’s applications and files are stored on and run from the server.每个客户机控制显示器,鼠标,键盘,而用户的所有应用程序和文件存储在运行的服务器。
The K12LTSP distribution contains many battle-tested open source applications, including full GNOME and KDE desktops, Evolution e-mail, Firefox browser, OpenOffice.org office suite, and the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP) image application.该K12LTSP分配包含了许多战斗考验的开源应用程序,包括充分GNOME和KDE的台式机, Evolution电子邮件, Firefox浏览器, OpenOffice.org办公套件,以及GNU图像处理程序(页)图像应用程序。 It also adds DansGuardian (open source Web content filtering) and educational software (such as Gcompris).它还增加了DansGuardian (开源Web内容过滤)和教育软件(如Gcompris ) 。 Applications that are not available in Linux can often be replaced with similar Linux applications or may be run from a Web browser.应用程序无法使用在Linux ,往往可以取代类似的Linux应用软件或可从Web浏览器。
Many schools in Oregon have adopted K12LTSP, including those attended by Linus Torvalds’ children in Portland, Oregon.许多学校在俄勒冈州已经通过K12LTSP ,包括那些参加了Linus Torvalds的子女在俄勒冈州波特兰。 Adoption of K12LTSP has also begun in Atlanta, Georgia and many other cities across the United States.通过K12LTSP也已开始在佐治亚州亚特兰大和其他许多城市的美国。
