Hi David, thanks.
Basically need. I need a server OS capable of doing what Linux does, but my desktop/laptop machines came with Windows on. Seems pointless to wipe and reload when Windows does the job.
Si.

Hello People,
Hello Simon, welcome to the list.
Why do we like linux? Well, because of the very low initial costs of
course.
Personally, I am amazed by Linux on a daily basis. The things I can do
with
a Linux box, and for free, are astounding, and I'm blowing the OS's and
the
Linux communities trumpet here, not mine.
You're impressed by Linux but not as a desktop OS? As you seem to be using Outlook and AVG, I can only assume you're using WinBlows. What has stopped you from transferring to Linux for desktop as well?
Anyway, welcome to the list. See you on IRC (I am Paperface there) if you come to visit us there.
Cya
