Linux taken for a ride in the Old West (ZDNet)
ZDNet covers
a migration to open source in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
"ZDNet UK spoke to Kent Morrison, the manager of information systems
at Steamboat Springs, to find out more about the city's migration to open
source. Morrison is responsible for two other members of staff in the
town's IT department, which supports 160 networked workstations and
approximately 220 email accounts across the town."

Linux taken for a ride in the Old West (ZDNet) Posted Feb 21, 2006 14:42 UTC (Tue) by keithw (guest, #3127) [Link] Steamboat Springs isn't just a consumer of Open Source technology, either. Several key linux/mesa/DRI/OpenGL hackers have lived there over the years (including, if I be so bold, myself). See also Brian Paul's homepage:

Where I live in the Southwest... taking someone for a ride is usually a bad thing. It can mean lieing to them or it means taking them for a ride into the desert...
3 OS's go out... but only 2 OS's come back.
