5 Reasons Why Linux is Recession Proof
,----[ Quote ]
| What's more stable than a rock, faster than a spinning disk, more powerful
| than a Windows system twice its size, and able to leap platforms like no
| other operating system? Surprise! It's Linux.
|
| It's also recession proof.
|
| Can that be true? Yes, and here are the 5 reasons why:
|
| 1. Not Corporate Bound - Linux is developed worldwide by volunteers. It isn't
| owned by a single company. No one person or entity really owns Linux, the
| operating system.
|
| 2. Free - Several companies create their own distributions and market them
| commercially but the underlying system is still, and will always be, free.
