First page says 'Results 1 - 10 of about 42,400,000'

Yes, but using some basic generic reasons and not "political" based reasons might not be the best route to go.. I'll poke through a few to see what I can extract out of them..
Boyd,
Thank you for your list also.. I'll be shoving some of those suggestions in.
Keep them coming..
The thing of it is, any reason you would use should actually be currently relevant to your work environment, kinda like "the use of Linux on the main/mail/backup server will reduce the constant/high/whatever rebooting and loss of this critical service, as well as saving the company license costs." I constantly get notices that this that or the other server at work is going to be rebooted, during normal work hours, which means we lose those services during the restart times.
