People say that Linux is not user friendly and cannot be used for Desktops for general users. Now I can surely say, if management plans to use Linux in offices, users & admins work hard on it without having windows in mind then they can switch to Linux.
Boooooooo... :P Its just a matter of getting used to, convenience, inertia. You'll find the same "effect" in offices that have been using Windows since a long time...
Windows is quite a PITA to maintain especially with viruses and its affinity for corrupting the file system, resulting in frequent reboots, hanging and blank screens. Employees who use the pcs have a don't-care attitude. After the coming of broadband about 2 years ago, these problems have increased. Pen drives are a nightmare. Every time I see someone putting in a pen drive, it feels as if he's injecting a syringe infected with a deadly virus.
