Well, by some strange chance I managed to get an assignment on Linux for my MSc course. ;)
However, it is proving difficult to find reputable sources (i.e well known companies, academics). I've been explicitly told that "Bob's Linux page" won't be considered a reliable source of information!
I remember when a couple of MS IIS worms reared their ugly heads a while back the Gartner Group, a well respected IT think-tank, were questioning whether companies should continue with the MS platform. Unfortunately I can't remember exactly what they said so it may be a red-herring, but if you find anything from them it will probably be acceptable. Other than that are you looking for a comparison of the technology from a technological innovation standpoint or are you looking at issues such as reliablity and cost of ownership?
