Linux in Germany
Posted by Prakash under Linux
When I visited Cebit this year, I asked a German why he uses Linux and I was stunned when he said. “Why should I buy an American software when something is available for free?”.
This is probably why the city of Munich decided to go the Linux way. It not because of the cost but by choosing Linux they are promoting the local industry.
This is also bringing out some nice innovations from Germany in the Linux space, such as Knoppix.
