Linux Succeeds Across the Board

,----[ Quote ]
| Overall, Linux has maintained steady growth in a 
| number of areas and dominates in some areas with 
| Windows the primary competitor. The primary 
| reasons for this growth and dominance are cost 
| and innovation. Innovation is especially key 
| because IT managers are always looking for new 
| technologies and new ways to lower their costs 
| and increase business agility. For the past 
| several releases, about every two years, 
| commercial Linux vendors have announced releases 
| with new innovative technologies. On the other 
| hand, Microsoft has struggled to release a new 
| Windows operating system with little evidence of 
| new technologies every four to five years.

Linux, FUD and Misunderstanding

,----[ Quote ]
| Linux is not struggling anywhere, at-least not in my knowledge or on my
| Desktop.
|
| Linux is a Free, Rich featured, Fast, and Powerful Operating system.
|
| That does not mean everyone should use it. Objective of Linux is not to get
| installed on every computer in world, but to provide a free Operating System
| to anyone who NEEDS it.

Africa's Lessons for OSCON

,----[ Quote ]
| This was the message that FOSSFA brought to OSCON. Open source is not only
| about technology. It is about the people who use the technology to solve
|                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| day-to-day problems. Being an advocacy and a support group, FOSSFA emphasizes
| the opportunities that open source offers to Africa in reaching its
| development goals in all socio-economic areas.

Why Linux Will Crush Windows 7 on Netbooks

,----[ Quote ]
| Linux versions of netbooks are already doing quite well and if Microsoft
| shoots itself in the foot by crippling its OS, the question becomes less
| about choosing between Windows and Linux and more about choosing between
| crippled and âjust works.â
