I occasionally do some consulting here and there and while you're right there isn't much interest in production Linux in North America I seen lots of it in China, Japan, and all over South America. Even to the extent that whole government departments standardize on it, or make it the employee's choice. Employees at one of Brazil's largest government service bureaus get a bonus for learning Linux because of its lower cost of ownership. In many of these places there is a very high tariff on imported technology and Linux on older pc's makes great sense. There is a good chance that these lesser developed economies will lead ours in Linux adoption. It leaves old Linux hacks like me with an interesting choice for "semi retirement" jobs... :) wcn
