Linux is going mainstream

,----[ Quote ]
| The truth is that Linux is well on itâs way 
| to being a mainstream operating system. The 
| bad news is that this will not happen the way 
| many of us envisioned.

Choice: Linux or Red Dead Redemption?

,----[ Quote ]
| When Firmware 3.21 launched, many people 
| thought it was a joke (partially due to its 
| 1st April release date). In fact, it was 
| nothing of the sort. It removed Other OS 
| support, already omitted from the PlayStation 
| 3 Slim, and led to some three separate 
| lawsuits as people claimed that Sony was 
| taking away advertised features. It also 
| managed to bring down the United States 
| Airforce, which was using PS3s with Linux for 
| processing power (fine, it didn't, but how 
| awesome would that be?)

More Reasons Why Chrome OS Will Be Your Extra Operating System

,----[ Quote ]
| Google CEO Eric Schmidt, speaking at a
| conference in Abu Dhabi this week, confirmed
| that the Chrome OS operating system is on
| track for delivery in the second half of this
| year. While we already know that itâs headed
| for netbooks, there are new reasons to believe
| that its brightest future may be as an adjunct
| OS on netbooks and tablets.
|
| Google is taking several big gambles with its
| upcoming OS, not the least of which is that it
| will require users to work with all data in
| the cloud. That will rule out countless
| applications and utilities that are, in some
| cases, beloved to users, and there is a good
| chance that Googleâs cloud-only gamble could
| backfire.

Ballmer Still Searching for an Answer to Google

,----[ Quote ]
| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
