Whittier Wood Products in Eugene, I've been told, is a great Linux shop.
And there's a credit union in Tillamook that is a known Linux shop
(Tillamook Bank, perhaps??).

I would think that many of the larger companies in the area have some
degree if Linux success in their IT shops, particularly any of the ISPs.
Linux plays a key roll at my ISP, PCs Made Easy.
