” The advantage for us with Ubuntu is the security and the control we enjoy
– we can update all computers from one location (and managing 500 computers
from one spot is a nice feature.) While this would of course be feasible in
a Windows environment, it would involve licensing MORE software on top of
the Windows licenses – with our use of open source – the licensing cost is
$0.”
