Naw... the proplem is....
...you HAVE TO KNOW what you are doing!!!
The point and click crowd of the MCSE (Microsoft Certified Solitaire Experts) can't comprehend REAL and SECURE Operating Systems!
"If they can't click, the OS don't fit!"... LOL
The problem is....
If "script kiddies" can break into a MS server/host/client and the same get rebuffed by a Linux server/host/client, the choice should be clear!

Hiring 10 MCSE to service the "Server/Client" in a MS environment OR hiring 1 (ONE) to do the same in a LINUX environment should be the a no brainer for a CFO and bean counters!!
PLUS.... NO MS VIRUS/SPY/SPAM/etc coming through the server AND NO reboot and freezing/blue screen/etc combined with cluster/Beowulf configurations ( NASA spend $250.000 on a LINUX cluster instead of multi million $$ on "Big Iron") AND NOW HP with a 5 9s server on LINUX, (that is 99.999 percent uptime). It's time to ask MS what the frequency of server reboot is!!
