I always enjoy reading these articles on how companies and organizations are beginning to integrate Linux into their environment. One day I can’t wait to see when someone says the had to switch because Linux just looks 10x cooler. For now the main reason (and still a good one) seems to be that Linux is cheaper.

Add one knowledgable Linux admin and Debian (or you distro of choice) and you should be good to go.

The IT staff itself is thrilled with the ease of administration. Each PC runs a script twice a day to check for any configuration changes or patches, so they no longer have to visit each machine individually in order to roll out new functionality or upgrades. And each time a new Windows epidemic makes headlines, their smiles get even bigger.

Smiles are always good.
