What price can you put on a user community?

| One advantage of the Cell was its ability to
| run Linux without dramatic changes to the
| code base: the standard Linux kernel now
| supports the Cell as one it its
| architectures.
|
| The Cellâs ability to run Linux combined
| with Sony providing the âInstall Other OSâ
| feature with its PS3 software gave birth to
| a niche community of PS3 users â the Linux
| user community.
|
| I remember at the last Linux.conf.au to be
| held in Sydney (January 2007), a few IBMers
| proudly had a PS3 running Linux on display.
|
| Unlike the Xbox and Wii, the PS3 and its
| Linux option was seen as âgeekyâ and âmore
| than just a game consoleâ. And it wasnât
| long before mainstream Linux distributors
| (Fedora comes to mind) started providing
| full Linux-based OS options for the PC â
| graphical interface and full-on âdesktopâ
| apps.

Still no Mac, Linux support for ATO's e-tax
,----[ Quote ]
| The 2010 version of the Australian Taxation
| Office's (ATO) online tax return software
| will support Windows 7, but not Mac or
| Linux operating systems.
|
| Since the e-tax software was introduced in
| 1999, it has been compatible only with
| Microsoft's operating systems.

Should businesses support Linux?
,----[ Quote ]
| Clearly, Linux should be considered for businesses right alongside of Windows
| and, yes, Mac OS X. Choices are a good thing in business.
