Hi all, I was looking for an article on research into replacing windows PC's with the Linux operating system in the Finnish Public Sector but could not find it (its out there somewhere). I did however came across this one, which might interest some of you.
Jan 19, 2002, from www.HelsinginSanomat.fi (largest national daily paper in Finland). Translated from the Finnish article at: http://www.helsinginsanomat.fi/arkisto/juttu.asp?id=20020119TA2 - 1/3 of large (>500 employees) Finnish companies "trust" Linux - Over 50% of public sector entities are "researching" the option of replacing Windows with Linux (workstations). 34% use Linux servers, and 11% use it as workstations (these % must be non-exclusive of other OS types). - Linux has 20 million users worldwide (tens of thousands in Finland) - Nokia: "... Linux is not yet used on our office workstations, but we have used it in design and research..." You can always push the article through a web translator to read more... Will
