Linux is the best kernel there is, and the OSes built off of it are the best around. Period.

Great article expounding many successful applications of GNU/Linux. Very direct and full of links.

I have been doing some work with that other OS lately, trying to leave the lab in better shape than I found it. Give me GNU/Linux any day. XP is constantly fighting with me for control of my desktop: popups after logging in (how rude!), ignoring clicks (not a multi-user OS, I guess), and slow. Why does what M$ wants to do have priority over what I want to do? I get way better response from a terminal server running 20 sessions of GNU/Linux.

My Mission

My observations and opinions about IT are based on 40 years of use in science and technology and lately, in education. I like IT that is fast, cost-effective and reliable. I do not care whether my solution is the same as yours. I like to think for myself.

My first use of GNU/Linux in 2001 was so remarkably better than what I had been using, I feel it is important work to share GNU/Linux with the world. I have been blessed by working in schools where students and school systems have benefited by good, modular software easily installed in most systems.

I have shown GNU/Linux to thousands of students and hundreds of teachers over the years and will continue in some way doing that until I die in spite of the opposition.
