Go, Linux, go!

In the papers today, this Indian place known as Kerala is going to get Linux instead of Windows. They are going to train people to use Linux instead of Windows, because Linux is free. Yes! One more goal for open source. Go, Linux, go!

I was standing at the magazines section of a bookshop today, looking at the IT magazines. A year ago, I could find only one, at most two, magazines about Linux in a bookshop. Today, I found four! While this is still a small number compared to the many other Windows (and Mac) magazines, it is an increase. Go, Linux, go!

Fedora Core 6 is out, for those who have yet to upgrade, it's time to start downloading. And for those who have their doubts, well, why not try it? The installation allows you to partition your harddisk for dual boot, you can always install Fedora Core and see if Linux is for you or not.
