Dear Mr. Peterson,

In regards to the research I have done to determine whether Ubuntu should be implemented into our business as a substitute to our current operating system-Windows 7 or not.  I have come across a few very meaningful facts about Ubuntu that might contribute to our final decision. After reviewing multiple studies and have tested Ubuntu myself, I have noticed the user friendliness and the easy access to it without any cost associated to it. This very attractive operating system would be a great opportunity for our company to be more effective in our daily activities.

Ubuntu does not require for users to be computer savvy to work on it, and also can be easily installed and constantly upgraded while running a different operating systems. Since Windows is still one of the most popular and used systems, Ubuntu is made to co-exist with any other operating systems what would make the implementation and transition so much easier. Ubuntu is one of the most secured operating system and defines the highest level of security as compared to other operating systems, what for instance would totally cut our expenses related to all of the anti-viruses software and their updates. Its long lasting support helps to storage the data for the lifetime of the computer. Moreover, this free of charge operating system will save our company significant amount of money on the frequent Windows upgrades as well as antivirus protections. This will definitely decrease our operating expenses and eventually significantly increase the Net Income. Especially considering our international locations, and over 300 US employees, implementation of Ubuntu will benefit our company financially and effectively.

With this, I hope you take into consideration my findings when making your decision.  Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to further discuss the matter.
Best Regards,
Anna Szperlak
