Open Source Efforts No Longer an âObscure Sideshow of Geeksâ
,----[ Quote ]
| âLong gone are the days when open source
| efforts were regarded as an obscure sideshow of
| geeks, open source software was viewed with
| suspicion by general public and corporate IT
| departments, and entrepreneurs struggled to
| commercialize open source efforts,â says Fakhri
| Karray, primary founder, president and CEO of
| Vestec. âAsterisk, of course, has in many ways
| led these changes in perception about open
| source telephony software and deserves to be
| acknowledged as a classic open source success
| story.â

Designerâs (Free!) Toolbox: GIMP
,----[ Quote ]
| Iâve done my fair share of software reviews on
| this site, but so far, all of them have been
| about the major commercial applications and
| âindustry standardsâ like Adobe products and a
| couple of 3D suites. But thereâs a new class of
| graphics applications built on open-source
| platforms that are going to leap further and
| further into our awareness in the coming months
| and years for a variety of reasons. Possibly
| most notably, they are free.

I'm Not A Linux Geek. Really.
,----[ Quote ]
| The thing is, folks picture me just like the
| geeky computer brainiac in the comic. But,
| really, I'm not a Linux geek. Sure, I run
| Linux, but I'm not sitting at my computer
| hammering out hundreds of lines of computer
| code. I'm not.
|
| When I run Linux, I'm pointing and clicking
| just like anyone else would do in Windows or
| Mac. That's it. Linux is that easy to use.
| No kidding. I'm running Linux at the same
| level and understanding as I would run
| Windows or Mac.
