Fors:
1. It's good for the environment, seeing as you download ISOs, instead of
trucks shipping a box, which eventually that box ends up in a landfill
2. Stable linux/unix has been proven stable on server machines that have
probably not been rebooted in 2 or 3 years
3.Highly secure, there is hacking contest to see if they can rootkit the
operating system with little or no user interaction, Windows and Mac always
fail the test, but hackers give up on *nix because it would involve too much
code and user interaction.
4. Linutops would be incredible energy savers thus good for the environment

Cons:
1. For Linutops and Panologic  there are no CD/DVD drives, only USB
2. Small learning curve, people that come from windows or mac will find it
different, although simple to use (change can scare people)
