Tech Break: It's Linux Time
,----[ Quote ]
| The bottom line: Windows and OS X aren’t the only operating systems out
| there. Take the summer to check out a version of Linux or two; pop in a CD or
| set up a virtualized install of your favorite distribution (Ubuntu is a good
| place to start) and play with it. You’ll be surprised how great a system you
| can get for free. As an added bonus, it’s one very legitimate reason to use
| that shiny new BitTorrent program you...uh...just downloaded. You watch all
| your movies from iTunes and Hulu, right?

Eight Reasons Your Next Computer Should Run Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. Freedom of Choice
|
| Linux distributions are available for several computer platforms,
| including most Macs and PC’s. Find the computer you like best and
| install Linux. It’s getting easier every day to find equipment from the
| OEM’s that is compatible with Linux. Don’t feel like doing the research
| or installing Linux yourself? You can find computers with Linux
| pre-installed from vendors such as System 76, Dell, and Hewlett
| Packard.
| 2. Stability
|
| There’s a reason the some of the Internet’s biggest players, (like
| Google) base their infrastructure on Linux. Linux is known for rock
| solid stability. You won’t ever see the Blue Screen Of Death unless you
| install the BSOD Screensaver.

Linux s'il vous plaît: French Gendarmie say oui to Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| The Gendarmie Nationale – France’s national police force – has been slowly
| introducing open source software to its 105,000+ policemen since 2005. In
| 2008 the decision was made to use only Ubuntu for all new workstations. A
| year on shows this has been a great success with happy users, a better
| network and cost savings of over seven million euro per year.
