I am the "linux guru" here, so that should scare us all! I have a few
projects coming in that will REQUIRE (YEAH!) Linux, and I'm now testing
everything for Linux since we are academia (that's academics and meglomania
combined), and some research we do for the university system is going to
require linux. I'm the only one who's job is secure right now.! :)

Don't tell anyone that you're using Linux.  Every problem that arises 
(including power glitches) will be the fault of the person using Linux. 
("That open-source code is not secure.  All the hackers use Linux, you
know.")

Have a screen saver that's a screen shot of a Windows desktop.

Don't snicker out load when your neighbor's computer locks up and steals the

entire morning's work.

Sorry for not providing any real help.  Your question is a good one.
