I'm a primary Linux user myself, but I think it's a good that we have other alternatives too. Competition is what makes the world go around, having alternatives is good. Also, if there are more targets, people tend to write more portable co

The $80 billion is only the yearly interest Greece has to pay. Their total debt is $402 billion. So this is in the 1-2% range compared to Greece's issues. That's still an incredible amount for a single person.

I'm an Ubuntu user since a few years. I made Canonical some money by buying some software in the software center (games actually). And I don't think that I'm alone with this. But they are not only desktop. Juju (deployment) and Landscape (l
