Linux as a replacement for Windows 2000

From Robval.com: ” Based on a solid Linux business plan, my client decided that Linux was a good investment for most of the company’s employees, but will retain a few key Windows computers in the office for specific applications. Connecting Linux and Windows computers on the same network, and sharing Office 97/2000 files between the different OSs, is easy and works well, thanks to Linux Red Hat and Star Office. The primary reason for this decision was a $10,000 saving on his IT budget! For support reasons, he decided to use a local Linux supplier for installation and configuration work.”
