[QUOTE="fzcool, post: 3643968, member: 10264"] [CENTER][SIZE="5"][COLOR="DarkRed"][B]About Linux What is Linux? [/B][/COLOR][/SIZE][/CENTER] [COLOR="Blue"][SIZE="3"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"] Linux is a free Unix-type operating system originally created by Linus Torvalds with the assistance of developers around the world. Developed under the GNU General Public License, the source code for Linux is freely available to everyone which is causing a major evolution in the world of computers. It outperforms other operating systems on similar hardware and is available on architectures ranging from a PDA to supercomputers. A modern operating system like Linux is even easier to install and use than Microsoft® Windows™, especially given the reboot nightmares, viruses, worms, driver-update hassles and Service Pack annoyances that come with Microsoft® Windows™. Linux and Open Source technologies have become the standard platform of choice for IT system deployment. Over seventy percent of the internet is running on Open Source technologies and international vendors such as Sun, Novell and IBM are deploying Linux and Open Source. With proven reliability, security by design and a world class reputation throughout the IT industry there really is no reason why you cannot move to Linux and freedom right now. Why wait for your next systems failure? Now is the time to start your move to Linux and Open Source. Moving to the Linux platform does not require abandoning existing investments in Microsoft Windows applications and infrastructure. Linux runs on the same hardware and can run many of the Microsoft Windows applications, like OpenOffice. What makes this even more amazing is that Linux and Open Source applications are freely available to anyone who wishes to download them. Why Move? The big question for many corporate IT professionals and developers is "Why would I move from Windows to Linux?" Windows is well established in the enterprise computing space and applications currently deployed on Windows may be running just fine in their organisation. However, many organisations are migrating from Windows and UNIX to the OSS Linux platform. They are moving in order to gain better business value, a greater choice of solutions, and richer capabilities for addressing their enterprise computing needs and abilities. This is what no proprietary vendor can do... 1. They don't have the hugely productive environment of KDE to program in. 2. They can't run development crews of the Open Source Community size without considerable investment. 3. They can't gather the input of thousands of users. 4. They can't design in such an open fashion as to remove all their hooks. 5. They can't make a product so extensible that it takes away their upgrade leverage. 6. They can't give it away for free.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
