If you have an economic development department or small business support organisation for your area they might be able to help. At my last job we were asked to sign an NDA by a potential partner. I took it to my boss who was happy to sign it as he'd helped to write it! He'd done some consultancy for the Welsh Development Agency to develop administrative support resources for small firms in the technology sector in Wales and a model NDA was one of the things he'd worked on.
To draw an analogy, choosing Linux is like choosing to drive a car with a stick shift.
Over on this side of the Pond, almost all of us drive cars with gear sticks...
Amen to that. I wish this had happened just a couple of years ago. The outfit I used to work for has a huge IBM mainframe network (running VM as it happens) with thousands of concurrent users on every day. They are reluctantly migrating to an NT-TSE network which is costing them huge amounts in server kit and staff time, largely because their end-users won't put up with the clunky block-mode character UI any more. At least this way they could give all 10,000 users a virtual Linux both with X and a wide variety of existing apps, especially graphical access to the Intranet they're building.
Why does the phrase "critical mass" keep springing to mind when I read this?
