LOL.

OK, just servers, even though (to me) "Enterprise Management" implies an en=
terprise -- which usually has workstations, users, printers, etc.

You still dodged the question. :)

Which "Linux" servers are you talking about?

And you WILL call Microsoft for enterprise management features once you get=
 past the basic small network case with more than a few servers.

There are tons of necessary downloads for this & that, not to mention the p=
ay for products like System Center Operations Manager, which is different f=
rom System Center Configuration Manager and System Center Virtual Machine M=
anager, all the different Forefront products, etc. etc.

Anyway, I just wanted to point out that if you want a Linux enterprise but =
you don't want to build it yourself, all you have to do is pay someone else=
 to do it. RedHat has a successful business built around doing exactly tha=
t. And if you want to build a Windows enterprise, you'll quickly find your=
self outgrowing the tools installed "out of the box." Microsoft is able to=
 sell their enterprise products mentioned above because they are NOT availa=
ble out of the box.

Just my 2c.

Cheers!
