Guide For Switching To Linux At Your Church

,----[ Quote ]
| My earlier post on how we migrated to using 
| Linux raised some questions. Some wondered why 
| other churches, schools and Christian 
| ministries did not do this (though there are 
| many that have). Others wondered how they 
| could do it themselves.

Sell Linux on its merits

,----[ Quote ]
| I believe we should tell Linux as it is: not a 
| clone of Windows, nor was it created to 
| replace it. Sure it's nice telling people they 
| are not likely to suffer security breaches on 
| Linux as they would on Windows, but that 
| should not be the norm of promoting Linux.

When Mac Owners Think Their Hardware is Broken

,----[ Quote ]
| I've run into an interesting phenomenon concerning the Macintosh.
| Various "broken Macs" can be found from among the vast population of
| nontechnical Macintosh users. These folks believe so strongly in the
| Macintosh software that when their system stops working, they decide that the
| hardware is broken, and often replace it, when it's really software that is
| the problem.
