THAT in my opinion is one of the major reasons why Linux has gotten where it has. How many stories are there out there about somebody install a Linux box to take the place of an NT box. In some cases leaving the NT box up and running and connecting the net cable into the Linux box. I'm doing it around my office. It may get me fired, but my company will have working, reliable services. Thats what they're paying me in part to do, and I'll do my job to the best of my abilities.
