Smart business person
You are a smart business person because see the long term view. MS will never ever go away but also Linux will continue to grow. As a business person, when your client says, I want to move to Linux, why in the world would you leave money on the table. It isn't like Linux does not work. Governments and schools are / will be the leaders in the move to Linux. I live in a township that has over 150,000 residents and is considering moving to open source. It is like house paint. There are still people that consider oil and lead based paint to be the only paint to be used but go to the store and latex (water based) outsells on a daily basis. That change didn't hapen over night and Mike C. will be the guy claiming oil / lead based paint is the only way to go.

I think Mike Cox likes to get people in flames because he really can't be that myoptic.
