I didn't say it was draconian for not supporting Linux, just that it was draconian. It was widely recognised in the part of the business I was in that the IT department was holding the company back when it came to technology.

And, in any case, I wasn't asking any questions about Linux, I just wanted to connect to the network. My current company lets me use whatever weird distro I want (even Arch, btw), but they won't officially support it. That's fine. I can, however, ask them to support standards that I need (rather than specific support for some distro).
