I support a reasonable number of very small businesses, most of those that have moved from m$$$$ to linux (either before I started supporting them of with my help in converting) have female staff (if allstaff = 5 then femalestaff = 2 (usually)). It's usually the 'girls' that pick up things quicker, want to know how to fix REAL problems themselves, customize layouts, etc. first. The men tend to play first, then learn or ask the 'girls' later. Especially in a training session.

Some of the Ladies I've introduced to Linux are happy tp have an OS where Suzie and Katie rule the roost.
(Its really SuSE and KDE, but you can't tell the ladies that...)
