This is a large yawn to me..
Mike,
Again I must teach you the way. As I and my company's CEO have implemented a Linux-Only solution in our company, the employees (whom we request to dress up as penguins) have never been happier. Their productivity has skyrocketed to about 1000%, as they must no longer wait for Microsoft spyware to report back data to Bill's personal data server, and the annoying constant updates/patches/fixes/virus-cleansings/exorcisms that must be done on an hourly basis on any Windows machine.
Our Linux servers run on 32-processor 286's. With only 200 meg of hard drive and 16 meg of RAM needed for the OS, the petabytes of data is effortlessly flown out securely to other connecting Linux and Unix (and some BSD) computers. Of course we did have a Windows XP box try to connect to our network, but Linux sent out a Virus Alert. It corrected the problem by formating the accursed hard drive, and installing RH9.
Mike- when you learn that Linux will save time, money, effort, and even your very soul - you will then TRULY be working in a Free World.

Linux... God uses it. Don't make Him smite you.
