@ChiangKuanga: I would not call this shit. I run GNU\Linux myself on my PC and I can accomplish all my computing need.
Look at what ELCOT has done? They saved several money by migrating to Linux.
It’s a of course, a matter of choice. Linux is not one size fits all solution. People deploy where it fits and makes sense.
Even Dell has started offering desktops pre-loaded with Ubuntu Linux.

Benjamin…I guess it depends on what you use your computer for and what programs you run on your computer. Many office computers in many companies only run specific programs for office work. In this case, it might be effective if the same programs can be run because it is cheaper. Apart from cost, what other advantage do you think this system has over Microsoft?

Apart from cost, what other advantage do you think this system has over Microsoft?
- Too many. You can Google it. I will tell you a few
* Again cost. That’s a huge factor
* You are not dependent/ locked down to a single vendor
* Almost virus free (secure). So the company need not invest in Anti-virus (cost saving)
* If there’s a bug, it’s fixed pretty thanks to the big community behind it.
* More stable
* It can be tweaked to run faster on older hardware
IBM deployed Linux Desktop internally where it fits and here is why they mirgated

The above being said, it does not mean it’s the universal solution and it has it’s own share of problems.

Benjamin…Thanks for the detailed reply. I do not know too much about computers. I just do not think the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages. Just a personal choice and definitely not a risk I am willing to take especailly because of the fact that I do not know too much about computers. Maybe if big companies in the first world start to switch, I will be more convinced.
