Indian Linux enthusiasts in upbeat mood (Forbes)

Forbes.com covers Linux Bangalore and Bill Gates' visit to India. ""No one could have possibly arranged for more publicity for the open source movement and its importance than Bill Gates coming and giving $400 million to fight Linux," said Atul Chitnis, an adviser to the Bangalore Linux Users Group whose conference ended on Thursday. Bangalore is considered a key battleground in the tussle between the two platforms because of India's developer army which analysts say can help lower costs and boost innovation."
