I am currently trying to plant the seed of transition from NT/2000 to Linux at the company I work at and was hoping to get some input from the Redhat list community. First some background. I am basically an end user of our desktops, but have knowledge of Linux because I manage and use a cluster/beowulf based on Redhat Linux. However, I think that Linux could be more cost effective and have been working on one of our IT folks about giving Linux a try. But to do this seriously, I need something other than "I think it would be better." Therefore, I was wondering if anyone knew of any white papers or anything else I could start with that discussed the difficulty of the transition, costs associated with it, etc.
The main apps that will be of issue will be 2 CAD packages, PRO/E and Unigraphics, metaphase, SAP, and the obvious desktop office apps. I think the open office with RH 8.0 will take care of most of the desktop office app stuff, but the others I'm not so sure about. Right now, I'm just trying to plant the seed and pique her interest. thanks, Todd -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
