Narazil jsem, vice mene omylem, na zajimavou stranku kolegu od Mrkvosoftu, (tady) stran vyhodnosti / nevyhodnosti Windows a Linuxu. Bohuzel jsem zatim nemel cas procist si to cele, ale jedna cast me docela zaujala..


Linux-only deployments are also less expensive. The other situation where a
customer saved significant amounts of money with Linux was in a new, “greenfield”
deployment. This company was building a new IT organization from scratch for a
startup division of its organization. There was no legacy environment to migrate
from and no requirements for multiple operating systems to support. The CIO of this
technology company estimated his Linux deployment, “Cost us around 20% less than it
would have cost us with Windows.” Most companies, though, don’t have the luxury of
building a brand new IT organization.


Coz si myslim je docela bomba. A to predevsim v tom, ze i ve vyzkumu, ktery si da M. na svoje stranky, se pise, ze Open Source je vyhodnejsi nez soft od velkeho bratra.
Na druhou stranu se tam popisuji bezne problemy pri prechodu z Windows na Linux. Zajimave je, ze ne naopak ;).
Nechci hodnotit objektivitu (vzhledem k tomu, kdo vetsinu vyzkumu sponzoroval ;) ).
