As you “already know” – boss knows the best. If bosses were given to choose an operating system which would be right for their employees, that will be Linux. Here is the reasons:

So I finally made the plunge. I've long wanted to be part of that geeky elite who broke from the crowd, stepped aside from their fellow computer lemmings and took a different plunge - not off the cliff, but into an alien and poorly understood (by the masses) computer operating system - Unix.

A while ago somebody asked me what he could tell his boss to convince him to migrate to Linux, so I made him a small list.

A lot of tech-savvy indivuals face the same dilema: their parents, who aren’t so tech-savvy, count on them to provide constant technical support for their Mom & Dad PC. This can become an incredible burden in a Windows world, where the dangers of spyware, viruses, and total system meltdown loom large.

A few weeks ago a former boss and mentor of mine made my jaw drop by asking me, "Why has open source failed?".

With apologies to my boss, a story in today's Wall Street Journal has me thinking that the future of Linux deployment might perhaps be even better than he predicted.

Memos for your Boss that create awareness of the possible pitfalls and caveats of proprietary software plus the proposal of open source software and its ability to prevent vendor lock-in situations when using proprietary programs.

I recently went through a long discussion with my boss about linux mail clients usage in corporate environment.

Ubuntu is all about fixing bug #1 and I feel it's incredibly successful in that game. Ubuntu gets mainstream press coverage, hardware vendor support and popularity with not-so-geeky but experienced (and potentially influential) computer users to an extend unheard of in the free software world
