Linux in the Workplace: It's Here, There and Everywhere
,----[ Quote ]
| A few months went by before the first brave soul took the plunge.
| He got his machine up and running fairly quickly and has been
| using it ever since. Then, another few months and another convert.
| This one was really interesting. He was using XP on his T43 laptop.
| After installing wireless drivers, his machine ground to a halt. It
| was taking 10 minutes just to boot and became totally unusable. He
| installed Kubuntu, which detected his wireless card properly and
| the machine now runs smoothly. Two others are thinking of
| installing Kubuntu as well.
|
| Colleagues who have made the switch have started contributing
| their own articles to the Wiki e.g. Installing JBoss, Oracle,
| GNOME, etc. Our office has approximately 15 people. In the space
| of one year, we have gone from zero Linux desktops to 20%. The
| people who are using Linux now are very happy with it.
