Re: [PLUG] NTFS --> to ? Conversion
|
I think it would appeal to any technical person who would like to see an
in In-Place migration from Windows-to-Linux be possible. Microsoft made it
pretty easy to convert from NetWare to Windows NT. Linux needs to be
easy/convenient to migrate from Windows. The need to buy new hardware
means it's going to be more expensive to migrate to Linux if you can
upgrade WinNT to Windows2000 on the same system. The $800 license is cheap
compared to the cost of a new server.
