Wow Kathleen...sounds like you all are going to get there before we
do. There's a project in the works right now that will be using a Linux
Mandrake machine as a database warehouse and server, but other than that I
don't see the management allowing a workstation change-over anytime in the
near, or sometimes distant future. Wish they would though cause it would
make administering the network and the user-workstations alot easier and
less demanding of our time. That would allow us much more time to develope
in-house solutions.
Good luck and keep on plugin the Penguin. O, and please stay in touch and
let me know when you begin the switch. I and the rest of the IT staff
where I work will be eagerly awaiting news.
