Talking about engg students not liking Linux, well in my coll (TSEC) we had to install debian on 2 of our project lab comps for our final year BE project (ours is btw the only group in the entire final year doing a project in Linux!!). we had to install it on comps originally havin mandrake(which no one touched) +wind0ws xp. so we competely removed the above mentioned OSs and installed debian. well, it so happened tht those comps were the comps connected to the internet and so other students complained to the HOD that they were not able to use the comps as it had only Linux on them. We explained to the HOD how easy it was to use debian and that we will install additional packages(eg. firefox browser) to make it more simpler to use. but the HOD the dumass tht he is refused to give us permis to load debian. its a pathetic situation. and this after there was a hugely successful workshop on Linux during our tech-fest.
