Haha well talk away, my clients love talking about linux, they don't understand this whole opensource/free thing, think its mental even though I have explained about support etc.
Could Ubuntu not develop a more user friendly home server ie just with samba and maybe amanada or bacula for backups? Not all the extras.

I work for a reasonably large (130 staff or so looking after mabey 5000 desktops and a couple of hundred servers) IT department which has (unfortunately) standardised on Windows. I reckon less than 5% of them would use Linux in any form :-( In fact I think the only Linux servers that are used, are ones I look after! I've had to stop talking about it at service meetings etc though as people's eyes glaze over. At least I have you guys as an outlet though ;-) Chris -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
