I'd be fired in no time flat if I were to switch our users to linux desktops. Our employees need to get their work done, and not be constantly wondering why open office or wine isn't working properly with a document from an overseas office.
Linux is certainly getting better. And I use it constantly everyday at work. However it does no good to overstate the case and portray linux as "extremely user friendly". Once that is done, people tend to blow off all the other, legitimate praises.

Gotta say Ubuntu is pretty damned near complete as a Linux client OS. There is nothing pragmatic about Vista for the average XP user, yet we're encouraged to *upgrade* to it anyway.
Ubuntu is definitely "extremely user friendly." And really...if I wanted to be practical, I wouldn't be using Mac OS X either...
