The actual question I got asked was "can I read my pst files with that". The
guy who asked me burns all his mail onto cd,s and has got the last five
years of work and email backed up this way. He is also the one who first
asked me about Linux because he does not want to pay for Windows anymore.
Believe it or not I did not prompt the bloke he is just genuinely fed up
with it and is looking at alternatives. He asked me if I would recommend
migrating straight to it and I had to say no, this had more to do with the
fact that he has been conditioned into Windows and would find that it would
probably be to steep a learning curve to move completely.
