I think SP2 is the straw that will break the camel's back. I know several of our clients are leaning toward using linux more and more. The area I live in (Western NC) has been hit hard because of the economy and I hear more and more of my customers complaining about the cost of using Windows. The best part is I'm the only linux guy in my company.
