Open Source will keep the fight and continue to grow!

idea posted by Ted Green President, Ghz Wireless

As many of the core developers know, open source helps the planet in millions of ways. From Open office, to bootable ISO cd's with thousands upon thousands of precompiled applications, open source has always been the driving force in development, in more ways then one. I know open source will continue to keep the fight and continue to grow.

i support the above argument very much as the closed source systems don't have much to offer to people who wants to make there own systems working according to their own will.Open souce is the only platform where you get to learn and get an oppurtunity to work in an environment where their is no barriers.From Kernel download to making your own OS is no big deal.

Add your argument:

How far linux will be implemented

I agree with future will be for open source.but how far many of companies those are using Windows will migrate to Opensource like redhat which are using from many of years and applications compatibilites will comes into picture.

The drive to green computing will spawn significant application innovations, and Linux will help reduce energy consumption via server consolidation, virtualization, load-balancing and more efficient resources management.

The idea of Linux on the desktop will be significantly different.

idea posted by Brajesh Sharma Business Analyst, Mentor Graphics

The very definition of desktop will change, and become more focused on clients that sit anywhere from a cubicle to the bottom of a pants pocket. Client focus will be on collaboration via open standards, cloud computing, enterprise appliances, Web 2.0 and rich-client platforms. If Linux wants a stake on the traditional desktop, it needs to mimic the Apple Mac in usability and design.
