Company switches to open source after raid
Read the story. BSA busts company for a few unlicensed copies of Microsoft software, company switches to Linux, now the company is saving money on license fees. Says the CEO: "I'm not paying any per-seat license. I'm not buying any new computers. When we need something, we have white box systems we put together ourselves.
