| schestowitz | > I see you looking up people who looked up you on Linkedin, it's about the only use of it. We've never met in real life but you once mentioned in the bottom of an email you sent me that you were visiting London. Unfortunately I didn't see it and missed the opportunity. You may remember, I did contribute a lot of the COMES docs that required transcribing from PACER images. I also contributed to Groklaw. Anyway I'm now totally retired | May 24 15:51 |

| schestowitz | between virtualisation and WINE, what is it you use that can't run on Linux? Have you tried lately? I've been using Linux for 8 years and haven't found anything that can't be easily replaced or made to work, especially office software, bespoke stuff aside, and that would probably be safe to run on a virtual machine. | May 30 21:18 |
| schestowitz | Before you shoot down the virtualisation route, it's standard practice to run a farm of virtual machines that users log into for just such necessities...or at least it was five years ago when I worked for a huge facilities company. | May 30 21:18 |

| schestowitz | Virtualisation or WINE isn't suitable for government use, if they were to go for WINE, they might end up going for terminal thin clients instead. | May 30 21:18 |

| schestowitz | What's wrong with virtualisation? | May 30 21:18 |
| schestowitz | The support is there already. If they have xNix servers, they have support staff and virtualisation already in place in order to use whatever software is on the xNix servers (assuming they're not just webservers) on their XP machines - at least that's how we used to do it. | May 30 21:18 |

| schestowitz | Well, I don't actually think they're going to change anything. They have enough clout to negotiate a continued support deal with Microsoft, so they could potentially keep XP forever. | May 30 21:18 |
| schestowitz | Upgrading to Win7, for example, would mean vast hardware expenditure, as everyone in Whitehall would "need" a brand new desktop and laptop at the very least. There'd also be server migration, bespoke software redesign...and that's just the tip of the iceberg. | May 30 21:18 |
| schestowitz | No, as a thought exercise alone, shifting to open source would be the lesser expense, as they could potentially keep all the existing hardware, and the extra support and IT employees they'd need to action the switchover still wouldn't come near the expense of upgrading every desktop and server in parliament and satellite locations. | May 30 21:18 |

| schestowitz | f it is costing the tax payer on average $ 10000 per desktop/per year you WILL save money in the long term by using Linux. Over a couple of decades the savings would add up (look at Munich for an example) | May 30 20:17 |

| schestowitz | Maybe, however, until Linux can become a viable solution, it's not going anywhere. I personally wouldn't use it as a desktop, half of the applications I need wouldn't run on it. | May 30 20:18 |

| schestowitz | between virtualisation and WINE, what is it you use that can't run on Linux? Have you tried lately? I've been using Linux for 8 years and haven't found anything that can't be easily replaced or made to work, especially office software, bespoke stuff aside, and that would probably be safe to run on a virtual machine. | May 30 20:18 |
| schestowitz | Before you shoot down the virtualisation route, it's standard practice to run a farm of virtual machines that users log into for just such necessities...or at least it was five years ago when I worked for a huge facilities company. | May 30 20:18 |

| schestowitz | Virtualisation or WINE isn't suitable for government use, if they were to go for WINE, they might end up going for terminal thin clients instead. | May 30 20:18 |
| schestowitz | Plus, they'd have an additional security layer to secure (and support). | May 30 20:18 |

| schestowitz | What's wrong with virtualisation? | May 30 20:18 |
| schestowitz | The support is there already. If they have xNix servers, they have support staff and virtualisation already in place in order to use whatever software is on the xNix servers (assuming they're not just webservers) on their XP machines - at least that's how we used to do it. | May 30 20:18 |
| schestowitz | WINE isn't stable enough for gov't use, that much is certain, but that wasn't what I was asking. | May 30 20:18 |

| schestowitz | Well, I don't actually think they're going to change anything. They have enough clout to negotiate a continued support deal with Microsoft, so they could potentially keep XP forever. | May 30 20:18 |
| schestowitz | Upgrading to Win7, for example, would mean vast hardware expenditure, as everyone in Whitehall would "need" a brand new desktop and laptop at the very least. There'd also be server migration, bespoke software redesign...and that's just the tip of the iceberg. | May 30 20:18 |
| schestowitz | No, as a thought exercise alone, shifting to open source would be the lesser expense, as they could potentially keep all the existing hardware, and the extra support and IT employees they'd need to action the switchover still wouldn't come near the expense of upgrading every desktop and server in parliament and satellite locations. | May 30 20:18 |

| schestowitz | "I can't mention any sources, but the last procurement exercise that was done, RedHat was heavily pushing for RH certified hardware, which would have increased costs significantly. Of course, the option was with the standard support, at a really crappy discounted rate, compared to buying new hardware." | May 30 20:18 |

| schestowitz | Agreed. If you follow the links to the government technology blog article you find this choice quote: | May 30 20:19 |
| schestowitz | There has been good progress in moving away from Windows XP across departments and government organisations and with many public bodies this transition is complete. | May 30 20:19 |
| schestowitz | So it sounds like a lot of depts have already migrated off XP already. So they're not a "step closer" to Linux. They've already moved a new platform. I'm guessing it's just a newer flavour of windows? | May 30 20:19 |
