Like the Windows Start button, but better (Installing SUSE)

Would have been cheaper to replace the video card.

Bought Vista Home Premium for my Father-in-law and cost over NZ$500 (and MS verification claimed my copy was bogus/pirated for the first two times I attempted to register)
A new Nvidia card with much better desktop graphics support in Suse (and most other 'nixes I guess) only costs NZ$85

My rule of thumb - choose the software that does the job, choose the OS that runs that software the best, then buy hardware to run that OS the best.

Doing it this way I always have happy clients, and reliable gear and good support from the vendors.

Would I attempt to run Active Directory and Exchange 2003 under lunux? No, just like I would run bind, syslog daemons, apache, sendmail etc on Linux, even though Win32 binaries exist for most of these apps, they are more common on 'nix, and issues and configurations better documented.
