Hey, Mr. Executive, if you were a top race car team owner, you'd try
just about anything to make your car go faster and win races, wouldn't
you? This is why, as a corporate "race team owner," you should be using
Linux. Linux is like a big roll-away tool box, just waiting to be put to
use in your corporate shop. It has its own culture, much like a fan's
brand loyalty to a particular automotive manufacturer. Race car team
owners know that track time and continual refinement are the way to win
races. This is obvious. They don't rely on TCO comparisons or
"hands-off" analyst reports. Why should your corporate shop be any
different? 

So, here's a high-level corporate team owners mini-guide on how you can
put a Linux team together and run a few laps.
