Total Cost Of Ownership (TCO)

Hi, Coming backl to the TCO issue as pointed by Kishore... There was a survey conducted by a group called RFG (Robert Frances Group Inc) which evaluated the Total Cost of Ownership for Linux deployments in enterprises... This was concucted from a wide angle of perspective exploring all the aspects right from the deployment of Linux environment and to the extent of administration and the hidden costs as well.. This says that Linux is the least expensive deployments which involved minimal TCO when compared to other OS environments such as Solaris and Windows and they also provided the quantified data and statistics as well.. For having a look at what they say about that, you can visit this link But still, People can question the validity of this information too but I would say the same words again... These people have put in lots and lot more thoughts than what we have put in and I am pleased to believe this and I leave the rest to you... The End!
