  3. Re:"Buying" Linux on Mac OS X Gaining Ground In Corporate Environs · · Score: 2, Insightful

    But I can speak from experience.
    Companys buy linux because its "cheaper".
    But when you figure in that you arent going to be using commodity hardware in your datacenter environment, so you buy dell/hp/sun.
    Then you buy redhat AS/ES, since thats what applications specify they NEED, then you need support (which is worthless from redhat) because you can't run supportless in an enterprise environment.
    You have just spent just as much money as you would on the equivilent M$ system.
