Science, humanities and other courses run by the prestigious Petnica Science Center in Serbia for students from around the former Yugoslavia are valued highly, but the non-profit organization's funding - by business, government and international organizations - is uncertain. Microsoft, whose staffs often volunteer at Petnica, donated US$313,405 of products that allowed the center to switch from using open-source software and improve teaching. It results in good continuing relationship with Microsoft and Microsoft development center in Serbia and Petnica can use specialist software written for Windows operating system.
