Thin Puppy Torture Test II, Day 1

,----[ Quote ]
| Final thought: The mere fact that you can run Linux in a traditional install, 
| frugal install, as a live CD, and make it even quicker by running completely 
| in RAM, illustrates the wonderful freedom of choice we have with a fully open 
| and modifiable operating system.

Linux. Its all about choice!

,----[ Quote ]
| Linux gives you a choice. A choice to be you and express yourself in another 
| medium. Much the same way as you express yourself in the car you drive, the 
| phone that you use, the way your house is decorated and in the clothes that 
| you wear. It is another way to be unique in a world were you would have 
| otherwise been forced to be the same as everyone else.

Choice: The system of Checks and Balances in Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| What am I getting at here? Just that Linux has and always will be about 
| choice. And although it is probably good to keep choice to a minimum when it 
| comes to OEM deals (so as not to confuse the unwashed masses), it must be 
| remembered that Linux can never consolidate to a point where only a few 
| distros exist. Not only is it impossible given the nature of Linux and the 
| needs of its users, but even if it did happen, corporate issues/politics 
| could eventually muddy the development process and possibly the public 
| perception of Linux in general. Smaller distros not only exist for the 
| benefit of their user base; they exist as a system of checks and balances to 
| the big boys and will keep the whole entire Linux ecosystem alive and moving 
| well into the future.
