    Sandip> [...]

    Sandip> Conclusion

    Sandip> Excluding administrative costs, the 15-year cost of 25

    Sandip> $41,359 versus a 15-year cost of $100,000 to $155,000 for
    Sandip> Windows PCs serving the same function. Although these
    Sandip> estimates are based on rough cost estimates, the overall
    Sandip> cost of hardware and software deployment, coupled with the
    Sandip> shorter overall time spent on administrative tasks, yields
    Sandip> significant cost savings over long-term deployment cycles
    Sandip> in our work environment.
