When was working for Advance 2000 we were pushing
linux on the backend for our clients. Testing stuff on
the Desktop too. Most of us ran it on our laptops. We
also ran all of our DNS at Advance too on Linux. Our
Alkatel phone systems routers were also Linux based..
My girlfriend works for Center for Plastic surgery and
the are runing Medent on Win XP boxes and Redhat Adv
server on the backend. They moved most of their data
which needs to be hippa comliant off SCO to Linux..
