Linux works extremely well in pro environments. It runs on the IBM Risc System 6000 servers and there are Linux partions on the large IBM enterprise systems.I don't know how well Linux would work out for a pro really,

always getting better , but scanners seem not to work well on any OS ;)

One of my Customers convinced his boss to run Linux on the pc that monitored the RS6K servers they had. In two years it was down three times, each for scheduled upgrades......
As for scanners, a friend of mine runs Linux and, if I remember right, his scanner works well. It took a little doing but he got it running. Next time I talk with him I'll ask which release of Linux and which scanner, etc.....
