RE: [OS:N:] Linux in Universities

["MET" <met uberstats com>]

I can see why that would be true, however, at least at Syracuse
University its not quite so.  The 'big' machines are all running old
versions of Solaris and are slowly being upgraded to FreeBSD and RH
Linux, we lose our last final mainframe this semester.  And believe it
or not, 99% of our labs are running Windows (a bootable mix btw
98/NT/2k).  The few labs that aren't generally run Solaris, which, like
the servers, needed replacement years ago.

What I have noticed here in ST. Louis--and please someone correct me if
needed--is that schools that have been in computers for a while, have
unix and a mix of platforms but those that started computer programs
recently are all windows based.
