Indeed.

Only yesterday, I asked a client I have known for 7 years if a Linux desktop could be put into their office.

They have 8 Linux servers and masses of Open Source software being used, but there was still a problem, and it just couldn't be done.

Sorry, no Linux desktop...

...I won't give up though :)

Patience is the key and solid proof that stuff works AND saves people money. I only recommend what I have used and thoroughly tested myself.

It's taken a LONG time for me to work on customers and it goes on EVERY day.

Good luck.

:-)
