I'm not averse to mentioning departments that use Linux, but I do prefer solid evidence (say, an official department computer support page that clearly indicates Linux is supported, or a good page describing how and why Linux is used in the department). Fuzzier indications of Linux use are I think handled well already in my google search tallies. Got a good link for me? > UC Davis' general computer labs (open to all students) still run Windows and > MacOS9, but it seems like the University may be heading toward Linux. That's wonderful. Do you have a URL of an official University page that has evidence of this? (Not trying to be picky here, but I'm trying to convince the skeptics, not the believers.)
