Microsoft has a large investment in Gilat.  there are no (and
probably will never be) any linux drivers for it.

might be that someone's working on a driver for gilat, but i
haven't heard anything like that.

if you want to run a mostly linux centric shop though, you can
still use gilat.  just have the gilat software run on windows, and
then route your internet traffic through there.  i did that once with
something similar that had only windows drivers.  the 
performance sucked, but things might be better now.  back
then, windows 2000 didn't exist yet and windows routers
were terrible.  things might be a bit better now.
