Column: Linux Set to Challenge Windows on Desktop | |
|
||
| Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: Reuters | Posted By: Todd Richardson | ||

Bought the latest whiz-bang personal computer, but don't know what to do with your older, fully functional PC? One option would be to try breathing new life into it with Linux, the software standard that is presenting itself as an alternative to Microsoft Corp.'s Windows operating system. With better stability, security and pricing in a desktop operating system with a look-and-feel similar to Windows, Linux advocates say they are getting ready to take on Microsoft, which dominates the desktop market. Since Linux is free to be copied and modified, unlike proprietary software from Microsoft, it is cheaper to obtain. | ||
