How should we spread the Linux word? 

,----[ Quote ]
| If people are unhappy with their current computing needs then you can show 
| them alternative ways of meeting those needs. Perhaps those alternative ways 
| may be better. If people, no matter what their computing skill, see a better 
| or easier way of doing what they want then they will use it. Because it 
| benefits them.

10 Reasons You Should Not Switch To Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| 1) You shouldn’t switch to Linux because… you actually enjoy paying for an 
| operating system that is so mired with bugs and issues that it shouldn’t be 
| even released as an alpha build. What recession?  
| 
| 2) You shouldn’t switch to Linux because… change is always scary. Look at 
| Obama, he scares the shit out of me. I voted for him but he always talks 
| about change and change is always scary even if that change will make things 
| better.   
| 
| 3) You shouldn’t switch to Linux because… the only thing you use your 
| computer is to play games. I mean people still use computer for anything 
| other than games?  
| 
| 4) You shouldn’t switch to Linux because… You love to dedicate one whole day 
| of your week just for scanning purposes. Anti-virus scan – Spyware Scan –  
| Defragmentation scan – Registry Scan & defrag. What Fun!

Should Linux Users Lead From The Heart?

,----[ Quote ]
| If there's something to be gleaned about operating-system evangelism from all 
| this (and I use that word deservedly), it's that the best way to get people 
| to switch to Linux may be through something they can get wrapped up in, not 
| just an argument.

Advocate Young Man/Woman, Advocate!

,----[ Quote ]
| These activities are of supreme importance for Free and Open Source Software 
| (FOSS) in medicine to succeed. If FOSS advocates are not present or do not 
| speak up at the table when decisions are being made, guess what direction the 
| decisions will go? The power of advocacy works only when exercised.
