	Side note: Did you know that the cost of training users to switch
from Windows 3.x to Linux in 1995 was the same as to Win95?  Did you also
know that the cost to switch from Win9x/2k to Linux is the same as to
WinXP?  Most people don't know this even though numerous studies and some
research shows that it's true.  I remember telling this to some people 
back in '95 and even after reading the studies and reports they still 
didn't believe it.  OC, they never even tried it either.

	The real cost in training comes with switching the back-end of 
things.  Server changes have a much higher training cost going from MS to 
Linux.
