Would it be impossible to have a combination? Free Linux distros for all those where that's sufficient, and a distro that supports AD where that is needed?

Without active directory in place in an office setup you might as well ask each of your workers to bring in their own PC and work on that, you would lose everything to do with Group Policy security, logins on domains are completely different to logins on non-AD PCs so you wouldn't be able to have users shifting from one PC to the next because their login info would just be stored locally on machines... along with any files unless they went to use a basic file sharing setup but again without a Domain to control it, it would be a mess if you had more than 5-10 PCs.

Oh yeah, I wouldn't do it if I ran a bug business. Then it becomes too much of a hassle. I was thinking more if I ran a smaller business.
