I run a mixed Microsoft (clients) and *nix (servers) shop.

I run win2k and Mandrake Linux

In order to run SUS I'd need to convert to an all MS shop,

Uh, why? You do need at least on MS server, but that's hardly an ALL MS conversion. However if you don't want to do that, why not just turn on the auto-update feature for all the workstations?
