Sure, if you're willing to be patient about it. You'll likely need to 
implement the bottom-up rather the top-down approach to have much success, 
though.  Get FLOSS into the schools first, and get the kids used to it and 
hooked on it instead of Microsoft.  Even Apple knows this, and it gave 
them a nice in-road to the share of the market they have in the US today.

Sorry if that doesn't sound as exciting or satisfying as beating people 
with a stuffed penguin on a stick though. :-/
