A friend and I were recently considering how one could offer computing services to small businesses / governments which leveraged #Linux. Most successful Linux #business models are server or cloud based.

Smaller entities don't typically need server services, but would benefit from reducing desktop licensing costs. Desktop Linux and #FOSS has come so far, it has to be viable in some market.

So, what would make a viable FOSS desktop computing services business model? It's very complex to me.
