I agree. Linux could easily do everything our corporate users do, and would save us a ton of time not have to uninstall things like WeatherBug and all the spyware that gets installed. Not to mention users screwing things up while "customizing" their pcs. (I know Windoze has ways to enforce policies and so on, but they are rough kludgy in my opinion, and seemingly rarely implemented.)

On the corporate desktop you have IT professionals making sure that the few applications that are needed for the business are working, and possibly even making sure nothing else does. Linux is still lagging in terms of depth of applications and devices that support it, and will continue to until it's taken over the corporate sector, as windows did many years ago. Matt >Yeah, the company that in most peoples eyes IS linux (because they don't know any better) is telling them that they should use Windows instead. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
