@jacob Enterprise features(batch deployment, software management utilities, identity management, etc) have never been problematic according to anyone I've had conversations with and they are largely why open-source has succeeded. This is why "the year of the Linux desktop" has been such a long standing dream despite Linux being one of the most heavily adopted OS's in the world - it most serves enterprise functions. (2/3)
