Re: Linux Desktops?

I disagree. I think the main factor that governs what OS companies use on the desktop is inertia.

The marketing department will use Macs because they always have, the IT department will use a mixture of all three plus some odd ones because we're contrary buggers and most users will use Windows because retraining them is too much of a pain in the bum.

(I don't run linux as my main desktop, but I have just rolled it out to a bunch of users, high turnover staff are easier to change)
