Hi everybody, I am newbie to this group.let me introduce myself. I am Chetan Ingle working in Rolta india ltd as s/w engg.Working on advanced java and redhat linux.Well When after started working on linux I simply fall in luv with linux and now I fall in luv I don't wanna come back . So I want everything on linux. Well I just read message of Saswat Banerji,I think it's easy to migrate to linux so we can convince customer.I have over 2 years experience on linux and java where i have done same thing like migrating application to linux.The only thing we have to do is give good technical support to customer after migration.Once we do for one customer then remaining customers will be convinced automatically.
let me know ur views too.
Regards, Chetan Ingle

Connected with the same topic actually,
If we manage to convince one of our clients to move at least partially to linux, how can ILUG help them ?
I am talking about companies falling between small and mid-sized companies in service industry. Say with 150-200 people working for them ? Can we promise such people help in moving to Linux and help in solving problems that they face ?
Companies like these are not the ones who can use help from usenet or such things.
I have been telling my clients that Linux is a good platform to move to, specially since it does not make sense to pay huge amounts for official windows software. I have also told them that the platform is very stable, meaning that once installed, unless you fiddle with things, it will work trouble free for years. But they are still worried about whether they will be able to cope up with problems that they may face. (Neither can they afford to have expensive tech-support contracts)
Regards Saswata

Maybe we should try this area as well. What say people. The best way to prove your ability is by DOING IT.

I am thinking of starting a Consulting company that will do only GNU/Linux and M$ to GNU/Linux migration. And I am looking for willing customers...
Saswata where can I get in touch with you regarding this?
Warm wishes,
Amol Hatwar.
