I've worked with Navy for over a year now and with this command for the last five months. NMCI affects only existing Windows 2000 servers and and clients. The Navy has a number of computers (over half the servers where I work) running various forms of *NIX (HP-UX, Solaris, Linux and even FreeBSD).
If anything NMCI will prompt more Linux useage because all the current administrators will have half as many computers to manage. Ideally NMCI would remove all tech support from the Navy, but with all the *NIX machines, many commands are forced to keep them. With less computers to manage, they have more time to play with Linux. The command I work with is currently in the process of moving all the HP-UX servers to Linux and FreeBSD, not only for meanial file server roles.
The best part: I run SuSE 8.0 on my classified desktop.<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:)

Actually NMCI has little impact on LINUX use
