10 Things for Linux Desktop Evangelists to Ponder
,----[ Quote ]
| Continuing the theme from #6, be willing to pay for Linux. Be willing to
| discuss Linux as a product people buy. Be willing to say "not free" isn't
| always a bad thing.
|
| I know Linux proscribes selling Linux, but there are many success stories
| where Linux is the cornerstone of a profitable product (think TiVo). A nicely
| constructed Linux Desktop is worth money, whether FOSS thinks so or not.

Linux, FOSS, and the Time-Honored Tradition of Charging More for Less
,----[ Quote ]
| There is something fundamentally defective with a business that feels it
| can't survive by giving customers a fair deal. Stick with FOSS. What you see
| is what you get, warts, roses, everything, with no place to hide tricksy
| dealings or dishonesty.

Why Use Linux?

| 'I Would Pay for Linux'
|
| "I use Linux first and foremost because it's Unix, and I've been a big fan of
| the Unix paradigm for 20+ years," Slashdot blogger yagu told
| LinuxInsider. "With GNU software, Linux is better than industrial (HP, Sun,
| et al.) Unix because it leverages the best extensions of familiar commands,
| making them friendlier (color syntax for the ls command) and more powerful
| (too many to mention in awk/gawk)."
