The Move to Linux â âDaddyâs a penguin!â
,----[ Quote ]
| With each new convert, Linux joins the
| mainstream, but even that statement is not
| fair. Linux is mainstream. It is viable and
| it is used in hundreds, if not thousands of
| businesses, schools and governmental
| agencies every day. Yet we keep talking
| about the day the desktop will take over,
| or the dayâ
|
| Maybe, instead of plotting the overthrow of
| Redmond, we should just be focusing on our
| own systems, one at a time. And let the
| nine year-olds tell us they want the
| penguin.

Buntfu.com - Linux PC Computer Systems

| I am hoping that the community will soon
| discover and become a part of our site
| which we tout as a "Community based PC
| Vendor." We believe anyone with a computer
| for sale loaded with Linux is a vendor and
| supporter of open-source software and
| should have a unified place that focuses on
| selling their Linux or BSD computer while
| promoting the use of open-source software.
