TCO studies must be very situation-dependant if they are to have any validity. In the first place, an cost-efficient Linux network would be setup differently than a cost-efficient Windows network. Then there's the fact that unless it's a completely new network, switching costs are a significant factor. Tony -- Anthony E.
