        Sadly, a true story. I asked 2 days ago. The answer was no, because they want to standardize the work environment. /:

          Kickbacks from MicroShaft to all C-suite and “special” org-wide discounts if they disband and ban Linux desktop projects.

          Even though Linux corporate desktop has the least cost, least number of tickets, least security breaches, fastest transparent updates, easiest automation/customization/tracking, everything is cheaper secure no-brainer no-headaches.

          Top-level execs still get to play with their Mac-books and Windoze systems. Linux for the rest of us. But no, all banned for Windox on all systems… security/BSODs/threats incoming 3…2…1… nobody in C-suite cares… they got their paychecks!!!

        They probably wouldn’t approve of this either, so what’s your point. If you’re using this you might as well just switch over. You can still run a Windows VM if you really need it, or dual boot if you absolutely have to.
