[Novalug] linux update security?

[Stephen Chapman]

I have 46 computers in my company ... 10 of which were originally 
Windows XP are now Linux.   and 22 of which i built myself that are also 
linux.
in our locations it is much easier to control what gets put on the 
computer with Linux... where on XP everyone knows how to install games 
and internet
applications.  Keeps everything running much smoother..
