They will demonstrate how they achieved ROI for both their IT departments

a solution based on Linux, which providers they analyzed and selected,
what their biggest implementation and migration challenges were, and the
business case for implementing these solutions. There will be a financial
analysis, including costs to acquire and deploy new systems (Total Cost
of Ownership) and the costs to keeping new equipment and software operational
(Total Cost of Maintenance).

case study and will provide an overview of what it takes to build a solid
business case and quantify many of the possible cost reductions that can
result from adopting Linux.
