NEWS More than 23,000 schools in the UK will be given free software this spring as part of a £40m give-away by Time Computers and ISP Supanet. The companies claim that 38 million tokens have been collected in a promotion launched last September.

The reduced tariffs were given the green light by telecoms regulator Oftel, today.
