No argument here.  I figure, though, that a business setting would
make for easier hardware management.  Presumably, you'd have one
person deciding what hardware to have on all machines, not a bunch
of people running out to CompUSA and plugging in every new gadget
that comes out.

To each his own, though.  That's why there ARE different distros.
