Here's an interesting article on TCO as it relates to deploying Linux or Windows. It's not the usual open source jihad, or the pro-MS kind of pap some other analysts seem to reflexively put out either:

"If you've got somebody who's smart and can config it, then http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/blog/blogView?showComments=true&entry=3236768086">Linux is] a beautiful desktop and runs well," says Meta Group analyst Thomas Murphy. "But for the average business owner, [[it] does not have that kind of simple nature that you have in Windows."

, I might be inclined to agree.
