In the current climate of layoffs and massive budget cuts an IT manager would have to be out of his mind to go to his superiors with news that he/she is replacing the NT servers they bought two years ago with Linux boxes?
Linux is a wonderful system but it'll have to work its way into the IT rollout pipeline. The pipeline isn't flowing as fast as it used to so it'll take a little longer. It will get flowing eventually as M$ ratchets up the prices and nasty licenses schemes.
So yes, businesses aren't decommisioning NT servers for linux -- no shit. They're too busy decommisioning employees.
