Things I have read in this group.
Linux taking over the desktop from Microsoft?
Intellectual property does not exist.
Roy Schestowitz has Microsoft running scared from Linux and the Linux
community.
Microsoft is losing business.
Microsoft are criminals.
Novell, Linspire and Xandros are Microsoft shills.
If Microsoft disappeared tomorrow, the world would continue to
function without problems.
Linux is mature enough to handle publishing, video and audio editing
at the same level as other environments.
Copyrights and patents are evil.
Proprietary information should be free and open for all to see.
There is some huge conspiracy against Linux and Linux users.
Windows users are ignorant, as a rule.
Linux users are smart, as a rule.
Linux gaming is great (that's my favorite).
Wine/Cedaga actually work better than Windows, or the same
applications run under Windows.
OpenOffice is a good or better than MSOffice.
Companies and Winshills are being paid to "diss" Linux.
And the list could go on for pages.
The bottom line is that even if everything in that list, and more,
were true, Linux is FREE.
LINUX IS FREE.
REPEAT AFTER ME LINUX IS FREE.
The real question is why are people willing to pay for Windows and
commercial Windows software when LINUX IS FREE ???
Answer that question and you will know why Linux has somewhere around
1 percent of the desktop market share.
