[PLUG] LBF (Linux Business Forum): Top Arguments FOR and AGAINST using Linux in Business


Sorry for the REALLY long subject. I will be prepending LBF: to these
posts in an effort to help sort them out later.

In your exeriences, what are the TOP reasons to use linux? What are the
TOP reasons NOT to use Linux?

Here's a couple off the top of my head

FOR:
- cheaper operating costs
- stability and uptime
- no single vendor lock-in


AGAINST:
- user retraining
- MS Office compatibility
- unfamiliarity - FUD
