The Case Against Linux

Posted by CmdrTaco on Saturday May 23, 1998 @05:26AM from the stuff-to-read dept.

zCat sent us a link to this ZD Net Link. It's a pretty fair piece on some ways; it discusses why Linux caught on when it did, but it also says Linux's 15 minutes are up, due to lack of clear direction. I disagree- Linux's direction is only up. Netscape & Caldera have thrown muscle behind it, the newbie UI issues are being ironed out as KDE and Gnome become more practical. Things are looking peachy.
