That makes sense. I wonder if that will work in the long run, or if
established big consultants will say "we do Linux too" and keep their old

ess that's
why they won Best Distribution.
Linux will certainly become a perfectly sane choice for the Average Joe
(and we all know who Joe is, despite the inevitable "Who exactly is the
Average Joe, anyway?" type of rebuttal). Profit motive will see to that.
And when it does, it'll be because of efforts like Mandrake's.
