How long you been using Eunuchs? And how much to train non-Eunuchs to be Eunuchs?

Think reasonable management might have an issue with all the retraining costs?

Long-term ROI can't be beat. I've been using Linux variants for about ten years now. Mostly desktop, some in hardware/platform testing. Recently for LAMP implementations and server side open source apps.

How much of the Intarwebs run on Apache? How different is MySql or PostgreSQL from MS SQL?

Many years ago, you might have had an argument. Not today. If I could take my 70 year old Dad, and replace the Windows 2000 on his computer and install openSuSE in its place, and teach him how to use it, then the more tech savvy (compared to him) worker bees of today can be switched with less pain than you might think.
