Three Reasons Linux Will Win in the Future

,----[ Quote ]
| 1. The Economy. “The economic downturn is more than just marketing hype for 
| open-source and Linux as a way to cut costs,” says Zemlin. 
| 
| Right now, corporations large and small are actively consolidating IT 
| infrastructures, Zemlin says, and free and open-source software is becoming 
| increasingly attractive. Also, he says, a recession usually causes companies 
| to re-think their age-old assumptions about their computing environments. 
| They will be more likely to consider all the options when they think about 
| software, server and workstation costs.     
| 
| 2. Redefinition of the Desktop. You’ve heard it so many times, it’s become a 
| running joke: This is the year of the Linux desktop.

Making the Future Happen In Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| A consequence of Linux's amazing growth is a growing new user population that 
| is not accustomed to having any power. Folks, you have the power-- you don't 
| have to sit around all sad because Linux is missing an application or feature 
| that you need. What you do is roll up your sleeves and help make it happen, 
| because that is how Linux works, and that is what makes Linux--and all Free 
| and Open Source software-- so good.

Linux s'il vous plaît: French Gendarmie say oui to Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| The Gendarmie Nationale – France’s national police force – has been slowly
| introducing open source software to its 105,000+ policemen since 2005. In
| 2008 the decision was made to use only Ubuntu for all new workstations. A
| year on shows this has been a great success with happy users, a better
| network and cost savings of over seven million euro per year.
