Microsoft trashes its brand -- and Apple's the winner

,----[ Quote ]
| Linux looks to be a big desktop OS winner -- at least in the enterprise. 
| White reckoned that, in the 2007 version of this annual survey, 42 per cent 
| said they’d switch to Linux, but two years later in 2009, half said they’d 
| switch. And when asked if they either had switched or were in the process of 
| switching, nine per cent said yes in 2007, 11 per cent in 2008 and 14 per 
| cent this year.

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.
