Stormy,

 Got it. Awesome stuff.
 I'm going to give you a contact of a national hardware manufacturer
which is supplying Laptops for students through the government (not the
cursed Magalhães).

 Unfortunatly they use a national distribution called Caixa Mágica
(Magic Box, http://www.caixamagica.pt) which is focused on KDE. This is
sad, but it's the reality. Caixa Magica is built based on SuSE/openSuSE
sources.

This is not true, atm Caixa Magica is based on Mandriva and ships KDE
for those laptops and GNOME for workstations on schools.
Both Desktops are supported. I use myself Caixa Magica on a VM and
it's based on GNOME 2.26 from Mandriva.

Cheers
Luis

You are correct, since 2007, I knew it as suse. Don't follow caixa
magica. I referred on laptops only on my post, commonly advertised as
"e-escolas" with cooperation with 3 legacy mobile companies. I am not
aware of such programs for schools. Besides donations I would assume
they work with local budgets? Not through mass stream student oriented
campaigns. Anyway thanks for the correction on Caixa Mágica (not my
fight).
