Sometimes Linux is really better

,----[ Quote ]
| I've been very impressed with the latest Ubuntu and it seems that the polish 
| goes far deeper than just the eye candy. 
| 
| Next week I'm off to Melbourne and the office lent me a nifty 3G USB wireless 
| dongle, a Huawei model E169, supplied by Optus.

Statistics, Market Share, Logic, and Why There Probably Can't Be Only One

,----[ Quote ]
| Operating systems aren't immortal beings, and by rights, there can't be 
| (there shouldn't be) only one. McKenzie reiterates Brian Proffitt's take on 
| the Freeform Dynamics report, highlighting the idea that visual artists and 
| graphic designers generally find using Linux less appealing (or workable) 
| than those in IT departments, or even generalized office workers.

Microsoft CEO Scoffs at Mac Share Gains

,----[ Quote ]
| Steve has a surprising view of the computing universe to put Linux before
| Apple. Most certainly, Linux's larger server share puts it overall ahead of
| Mac OS. But Steve wasn't talking about server here, but Windows client. So
| why rank Apple behind Linux?

Microsoft and Its Three Biggest Threats

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft sees Linux as a much more significant competitor, even though its
| share of the desktop OS market is small. Here's why: "I think the dynamic
| with Linux is changing somewhat," Ballmer said at the meeting. "I assume
| we're going to see Android-based, Linux-based laptops, in addition to phones.
| We'll see Google more as a competitor in the desktop operating system
| business than we ever have before."
