John,
the company i'm working for is not exactly what you are looking
for, but it is pretty darn close. 9 locations, not 10, wholesale, not
finance, and not switched but in the process of switching. it is somewhat
painfull - the worst part is mozilla / netscape / opera / galeon. they all
look rather sucky compared to windoze run netscape / ie. everything else
would be really easy if it wasn't for the fact that windoze boxes beacame
status symbols. it is all my own fault - i jumped the gun with thinknics
running off cd - not ready for prime-time. my budget, being what it is,
allows me to explain to people why they don't get to run win xp: "if you
think you really have to have it, buy a laptop for wich there will be no
reinbursment, and we will allow you to use it on corporate network."
needless to say, i get to deal with xp laptops - should have been a
salesman. ltsp (especially nicely packaged by k12os people) is great, and
the smart users are beginning to recognize it. i give them better
monitors, too. julius
