I just read some disturbing comments following the post Why Linux will not displace Windows over at the Education IT blog (ZDNet.com). If you have a few moments give the following comments a quick read:

• That wont work without THEFT of intellectual property
• It wont happen
• You are kidding arent you ?
• It wont happen

Even though these are all entered by the same person, it reveals the level of knowledge and experience among the common office employee (or lack of) I’m afraid. In my opinion many business owners are holding back on drastic changes like switching OS, as training costs would exceed the benefits of reduced license fees.

I hope the user (jerryleecooper) is just trying to start a discussion, and that he really isn’t this ignorant (airhead). Again, I do hope he’s kidding – seriously!

If you know of any others sharing his level of expertise, please share!! It’s Monday, I could use a good laugh
