Exactly.


I hope people remember that when selling Free Software solutions in a
business environment.

Citing GPL, Linux initially will scare clients. They will not understand
and they do not want to understand either. They are more accustomed to
hear some bullshit like PGHM Professional Server 2003.

There is risk management that Simon mentioned. What about 'change'
management ?

'Alternate' (software/solution) means change. Scary.


Just thinking off the top of my head here. 
Make Free Software sexy? Get girls interested. Oh dear...
