Linux for the Rest of Us (Business 2.0)
Business 2.0 has run an
article on desktop Linux. "In place of familiar Redmond brands
like Outlook, Excel, and Explorer (for e-mail, spreadsheets, and Web
browsing), [Zumiez] technology director Lee Hudson has store clerks and
managers tooling around on programs called Ximian Evolution, Gnumeric, and
Mozilla. The names might sound like Zumiez's myriad skater brands, but they
stand for something a tad more radical: the possibility that, at least in
some markets, Linux is finally becoming a viable alternative to Microsoft
products on commonplace PCs."
