Linux Has No Marketing, But What if it Did?
,----[ Quote ]
| Many users of netbooks don't need, say, Microsoft's Office apps
| running. I use a netbook at home--and at events--for writing, web
| access, and e-mail. I can use Linux or Windows, so why not use the
| platform that is free of security problems? That would make for a
| good advertising campaign. Unfortunately, it's only an imaginary
| campaign.
