Great idea! I have always wondered about using Debian in actual business
environments. Thanks for posting it here.

I am not sure I agree here. Running business with only open source software?
It might be possible, but at some point or another you have to use some
non-free stuff. For example your customers insist upon some proprietary
software. Would you go about advocating free software to this guy and risk
loosing him or yield to his requests and use proprietary software? I would
say just keep an open mind.

I for one am very interested in seeing how this goes.
