Government says all new PCs must be Linux-friendly
,----[ Quote ]
| The government-run Central Trust of China has mandated for the first
| time that all desktop computers purchased from now on must be
| Linux-compatible, demonstrating the government's desire to widen
| the nation's usage of open source software.
|
| "It is a global trend that Linux is gaining wider adoption due to
| its lower costs and better adaptability," Mike Lin, a consultant
| at the Taipei Computer Association (TCA), told the Taipei Times
| yesterday.
