Comment in News (1 digg, 2 replies) - on 05/29/2008
"If they don't notice, what's the point of switching?" Because it's free and open? If no one switches, no one will calculate Linux and Linux will stay forever where it is. Besides, there are more groups involved than only the users. For example administr … (see comment)
