Any teams use Linux?

Do any of your FIRST teams use Linux on any of your computers? Besides the cost, has it given you any advantages over windows as far as the competition goes?

I think it would be interesting to see what kind of flexibility Linux could bring to a team. Just thinking about animations and stuff, a cluster of Linux PC's could render things much more quickly than one machine...which is what are team would have done (had we had an animation, but that is a different thread )
