Well, I agree that it's VERY hard to get stores to realize that selling PC's with FREE software is difficult to do, it's harder to get the general public to believe that there are things out there for free. They get scared because Microsoft tells them to be. So, My partner & I started a NEW business, a few years ago, doing LINUX ONLY!!! www.Lin-U-Over.com . We help educate the public while migrating people to FREEdom. I heard Microsoft announced they were going to start charging for updates & now they've announced laying off 5000 people. The reason Microsoft is out there is advertising. Do you really think Microsoft would even exist if LINUX was on TV? NO! Everyone, in our area, read our adds & want MORE. On top of that, we keep the rates SO low Microsoft businesses can't keep up. The only problem is, people expect high prices & we DON'T charge for LINUX, just our time. They LOVE that & WE LOVE THEM. Bottom line, Microsoft has always been about money. There idea of development is how much they can steal & get away with before paying out. Vista was so bad, they have to fool people into thinking it was something else (mojave). It's pretty, yes, but not functional. Support, NON-EXISTANT. You can purchase a computer without MS on it, but only on-line or phone. I truly believe it is now the responsibility of the public to shop around, be informed & open their minds. At times I believe them to be LEMMINGS "If everyone else has windows, than so should I." I also believe it is our responsibility to educate our fellow human "Humanity To Others". My only real question is, "How can we begin advertising LINUX on Radio, TV & stores"? Please tell me & I would be happy to help.
