Pay As You Go Computing? Linux is "Free As You Go!"
,----[ Quote ]
| The good news is, right now, today, Linux has "free as you
| go" computing. Just download Linux, install, and you have
| thousands of free software applications at your fingertips!
| Many are already installed, others need only be installed
| via a Linux distribution's repository. (And that takes
| only a couple of mouse clicks!)
|
| You'll also be running Linux. An operating system
| supported by millions of users around the world! And
| Linux is more stable and secure than Windows!

REVOLUTION OS: A REVIEW
,----[ Quote ]
| We skip all of the AT&T Unix development and head straight
| into Stallman and his work on AI at MIT. At some point he
| became frustrated with passwords and Operating systems he
| couldn’t work with. He quit his job at MIT and began
| working on GNU (something I’ve discussed earlier). The
| problem with GNU is that the FREE SOFTWARE camp had created
| all that was needed for a working Operating System, but
| lacked a working, debugged Kernel.
|
| This is where our good pal Linus came in, saw the GNU
| software and decided to write a workable, monolithic KERNEL
| when, combined with the GNU software, gave birth to what we
| have all come to know as an early stage of Linux.
