A Peek Into Tomorrow's Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Then out of nowhere, comes another - Everex Linux PC - this time using common 
| sense with Google branding power and make a fantastic go at it. Rather than 
| convincing people that Windows-based PC hardware can be "tweaked to work," 
| Everex took the mistakes and successes from others before them and made sure 
| that gPC would be a smashing success. The result? The first major retail 
| outlet selling them sold out in just a day or two. Can Vista claim this level 
| of success?

| Last but not least, Free software world need to innovate and provide a 
| different experience. They should stop going after an hypothetic cloning of 
| Windows to ease migration. If the system is well done and provide unique 
| features with a good price, people will switch.

Windows Tech Writers Wrong About Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| - Xandros and Linspire are so much like Windows in overall feel that it's 
| painful. 
| 
| - Using any Debian-based distribution to install softare is actually easier 
| than using Install Shield and Add/Remove. Software management, discovery and 
| installation is light years easier than with Windows.

New RP-developed Linux 'looks, feels' like Windows XP

,----[ Quote ]
| The Department of Science and Technology-Advanced Science and
| Technology (DOST-ASTI) recently launched the Bayanihan Linux
| version 4 (BL4) and this time, it looks more like Microsoft
| Windows XP than the Macintosh OS.
| 
| BL4 is now based on Linux Debian Stable, unlike the previous
| version that used Fedora. Likewise, BL4 uses the KDE graphical
| user interface that gives it a Microsoft Windows XP look.
