	Perhaps they have techies who have only ever heard of Linux? 
Perhaps they're doing it for pure marketing reasons, because Linux 
has the buzz right now?  Perhaps it was mandated for them by 
management, because they have Linux-on-the-brain?

	Or maybe they actually have a valid reason -- such as being able 
to get lots of good support for Linux from their local Universities 
and colleges, so that when they need to hire experienced low-level 
people, they have a wide selection of people to choose from?
