OSDL Desktop Architect meeting, Dec '05

Yes, very interesting. I found this little jewel in there, concerning "a migration of 20000 desktops for a retail chain":

Overall solution cost was about 1/4 the cost of a standard PC/Windows solution; the savings was about the same as what the customer would have spent to open a new retail location. Starting last year, security has been a major selling point; customers are really tired of windows viruses. Pricing is flat per user, plus a small maintenance fee.
