Hello SuSE folks,
One big company management is thinking about developing new
software product for engineering applications.
This software should include database, web and desktop interfaces.
There are two possible choices of OS for this product.
Ether they should go with Windoze or make a leap into Linux.
Windoze is less stable and more spendy on license costs and
cost of additional software for DB and so on and so forth,
The company has commercial support from M$ and their executive
droids more familiar with Windows.
Money is not a big issue for them in this case.
What arguments other than cost and license fees can be made to
convence
executives to give Linux a try.
Thank you in advance for all thought and conciderations or other
sources of information.
