Copernicus was a priest too. So was Gregor Johann Mendel, father of the modern study of genetics. Georges Lemaître, father of the Big Band Theory as we know it today. The Catholic Church has had and does make tremendous contributions to science and academia.
My HTPC (Shuttle SK41G) had an ATI 9000 Pro, which ATI played as a DirectX9 card with the model number, but was actually DirectX 8. The PC would periodically crash. I replaced with an old MX440, and everything worked fine, but it wasn't DirectX 9, which I needed for HDTV. So, I came across an ATI 9600SE for a dirt cheap price. Certainly a newer card would be more solid than my old 9000. Nope. The PC periodically crashes, usually around 1.5 hours of TV watching mark. Not just my TV viewing software, but watching with PowerDVD causes a BSOD.
ATI, no way! Fix your crappy drivers!

Sun has some deployment plans and tools. You should look into StarOffice 8 Enterprise Edition. I've read you can get license costs down to $25 a license. It might be worth it for the extra support. Here are some links that might be helpful. http://www.sun.com/software/star/staroffice/enterp rises.jsp
