I have the incredible luck of having a boss who tells me what she wants
and when she wants it without an edict on the how to accomplish it. 
She's highly computer-literate, but she also recognizes that the IS
department is PAID to make these kinds of decisions.  After all, we're
the ones that will have to manage, secure, and maintain the systems
after implementation.

I'm NOT arguing that Linux is the correct solution in every instance. 
If I were getting paged every Sunday night to fix a problem with one of
our Linux machines, you must realize that I'd have no second thoughts
about ripping it right back out and replacing it with something that
worked.  Fortunately, that hasn't happened for our tasks.
