Open Source: Closing the tech gap
,----[ Quote ]
| Some bold steps could help in creating a resource pool that would be
| inclined to develop value-for-money applications on open source for
| the masses. A potent domestic market could be the biggest attraction
| for such measures. This entire gamut of measures is bound to have
| a snowballing effect in terms of more localised value-for-money
| solutions and would also help in other initiatives like education,
| health and industrial growth.

Linux migration on old computer:
Switching to Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| For the last few years, I've been happily using 98lite on an old
| 500MHz desktop, but after a long string of burned out hard drives,
| power supplies, and motherboards, I figured it's time to move to
| newer hardware. The problem with newer hardware is that Windows 98
| doesn't support it, and Windows XP feels like driving a car with
| sixteen elephants between me and the steering wheel, with a leash
| around my neck that's constantly being jerked by Microsoft.
