I agree, biger keyboards are great, I have one with 157 keys on it and they all programable, really very usefull you can even set one upe "netscape www.slashdot.org&" for that quick/. fix, made by a company called electrone
I read slashdot every day, and a linux fan i may well be, but Im more than serious about designing things properly as I expect many people who read slashdot are.
as for the original poster, If you dont design you deserve what you get (and if you worked for me it would be the sack)
Yes lets look at the cost of ownership ignore the $500 or $450 . The real cost of ownership is down time, time I spend looking at the BSOD which cost money now on average NT goes down at least once every other day, Generally I lose the last 20 minutes work so say a round 40 minutes at $75 per hour 220 working days per year thats $5500 per workstation per year now a good UNIX sysadmin may cost you $50K more than your NT admin types but if you have more then 10 Boxes then It pays to go Linux
I moved from UK because of IR35, but lets not go there
