Indian software developers adopt Linux
[Posted August 13, 2003 by corbet]
ZDNet is carrying
a
Reuters article on increasing adoption of Linux in India. "
About
10 percent of India's personal computers will be sold with Linux rather
than Microsoft operating systems by March, 2004, says Linux distributor Red
Hat, up from nothing in January. Besides the switch of desktop operating
systems to Linux, analysts say the bigger worry for Microsoft is the
growing use of Linux among India's pool of an estimated 400,000 software
developers, many of whom churn out code for giants such as General Motors
and American Express."
