Geek Quest: All About Linux, But Whereâs the Anti-Virus?
,----[ Quote ]
| To ease my paranoia, Iâm guided to this
| article by techthrob.com. Truth be told, itâs
| hard to reverse the brainwash Windows has
| done, therefore, Iâm still not 100% convinced.

Linux in the Mainstream, Whoâs Really to Blame?
,----[ Quote ]
| All operating systems have problems. All
| operating systems have benefits and
| weaknesses. I think thatâs an important point
| to remember. The reason that Linux isnât
| mainstream isnât because some doofus had a
| problem installing Firefox, itâs just lack of
| marketing, bad press, lack of commercial
| games, and user ignorance. On the plus side,
| Linux is a wonderful platform filled with
| thousands (millions?) of helpful people that
| share a common interest: they just want to use
| their computer, darn it. I think thatâs
| ultimately why Linux will always be
| âmainstreamâ in my book.
