Girish Venkatachalam

as UCE (Unsolicited Commercial E-mail)

Can BSD compete in a real life consulting

workplace?

Mike Bybee, Consultant, Fujitsu America

A reminder on our last issue topic- an article about an

experiment to determine a viability of BSD desktop in a

real world high pressure consulting engagement. There

are many articles that expound on the succes of Linux as

desktop, and quite a few accounts of using a Linux desktop

in this case or that case. But this one is written not from a

perspective of a journalist or home user, but from a system

administration and consulting perspective.
