[Novalug] Linux in Government

[Roger W. Broseus]

I have it on good authority that Ubuntu Linux is approved for any "scientific 
users" at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Word has it that a major 
hurdle was cleared in getting standard versions of Linux, Ubuntu and CentOS, 
"approved."

The standard desktop for FDA users is 64-bit Win-7or 32-bit Win XP. Email is 
on Exchange servers (2010).

Most of the Ubuntu users are doing Bioinformatics work with Genomic Sequencing 
and using turnkey software that only runs on Linux (Ubuntu or CentOS - 
probably more users).
