The Free Linux Distribution Myth

Believe it or not - not all Linux distributions are free. Actually, most outsiders of the community misinterpret the term 'free' and expect that to mean they do not have to pay anything. Not all distribution licenses are written in this manner. Instead, free means 'freedom' and not 'no cost.' This always comes as a surprise to some people. Tom callaway explains this challenge in a professional manner in his rant about licenses.


Linux Lessons

Not everyone loves to use Linux. This is difficult for some Linux enthusiasts to accept - regardless of the truth. This week a teacher caused a stir by suggesting it is illegal. Bloggers immediately chimmed in. Some were extremely disrespectul while others just didn't understand that everyone does not believe Linux is easy to use. My sister loves to explain that Linux PCs are more likely to be returned than Vista-based PCs. The data are in agreement. Linux-based PCs are returned.
