,----[ Quote ]
| While you can still download many free
| versions of Linux online, for convenience
| sake, several vendors offer user-friendly
| versions and charge a fee for support. Red Hat
| and Novell are the primary desktop Linux
| vendors, accounting for nearly 95 percent of
| the operating system revenue in 2008,
| according to IDC. Further, these two companies
| claimed 90 percent of worldwide Linux
| subscribers during 2008.
