Retailers Put Linux on Their Holiday Wish List
,----[ Quote ]
| Continuous uptime is critical in a retail
| environment. Known for its high availability,
| Linux has proven capable of staying up for
| years at a time. For many retailers, Microsoft
| Windows' security vulnerabilities are a serious
| concern. Linux is an established choice for
| business computing, and provides stronger
| security to prevent data loss and downtime.
| Because it is open source software backed by
| leading IT providers such as IBM, HP and Intel,
| many developers are working on it all the time,
| allowing bugs and security flaws to be detected
| and fixed more quickly than with proprietary
| operating systems.
