i think the largest part of many linux company's revenue is in custom solutions and support. if a bigger company chooses to go with linux for their servers, they need support. believe it or not, a faq is not always the best way to solve a problem at 5am with 3 hrs until the business crowd comes in to work.
I hot add/remove NT server, Terminal Server, Red Hat 6.0 linux, and NT workstation without ANY problems. Once it beeped weird but I just disconnected all the cables on the box and plugged them back in, and it works great now. The other cool thing is the ability to daisy chain, that's a good feature, I bought a 4-port thinking that is all i'd need, needless to say, I just ordered an 8 port to go daisy chained.
I'm not concerned with what you prefer (paper or screen). There's a bigger issue here. If you do print out onto paper, do you actually recycle it? Many companies are going electronic, but have no policies for how much an employee can print out, and even more so, no conveinient ways to recycle those printouts.
Recycling is the key. You can print things out, just do your part and help cut down on the environment's problems.

It works well, especially for the price..
