Don't agree: I like the 'open source movement' for its 'openness'.

Sometimes looking for information 'is' work. I finally could convince my
bosses to take a look at Linux (I use SuSE 7.1 at home). If I want to
convince them of the fact that it is cost effective to make a complete
transition to Linux (converting more than 20000 machines and +/- 300
applications/tools is a huge investment in terms of time, knowledge and
money), I have to know exactly what we can expect and how we can
avoid/circumnavigate certain problems. This list is one of my sources of
information. I suppose I am not the only one on this list in this situation.
