10 Myths of Free & Open Source Software
,----[ Quote ]
| At FOSS, the focus is more on the protection of information than the
| methodology used to implement it. Several codes are made and rectified in the
| public and it thus increases the knowledge of all the users worldwide.

Unix and Linux Troubleshooting E-Book
,----[ Quote ]
| I "finished" my Linux and Unix Troubleshooting E-Book today. Of course it's
| not really finished: I'll probably be adding and revising for months (and
| yes, all buyers get free updates), but at 45,000+ words, there was enough to
| let 'er go.

9 Linux Myth Debunked
,----[ Quote ]
| When it comes to Linux there are 3 kinds of people, those who never heard of
| it, those who are afraid of it, and those who hate it and spread falsities
| about it. I don’t really care about the first, they probably aren’t really
| technologically literate anyways, as long as they have E-mail they are
| content. While the second group is the result of the actions of the third.
| Let’s hit two birds with one stone shall we?
|
| 1-Linux is More Secure Because it Has A Smaller User Base
|
| It is widely argued that Linux is more secure than Windows just because
| Windows is more popular, so hackers and virus coders tend to focus on the
| more popular platform. Actually, this is just one side of the story There are
| so many other things running for Linux security-wise that totally dispels
| this myth.

Myths of Linux - The Public Can't Cope with Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| One criticism of Linux is that ordinary people are, on the whole, too
| ignorant about technology to use anything except Windows. This is just wrong.
|
| It's wrong because Windows isn't easy to use and it's wrong because there
| just aren't that many people who can't adapt to a new user interface.
|
| More and more people are using computers during their everyday lives, so the
| average knowledge of computer users is increasing. This means there are more
| and more power users.
|
| It also means that more can be asked of computer users and less technology
| needs to be aimed at the most inexperienced users.
