Changing from Windows OS to Linux Lite

[MS]

And where is the logic in locking a business into using a single vendor?

The problem is, it is not the logic, it is the momentum. Microsoft - even though I do not believe these are their best times - has built and sold a momentum kind of thing and that is why it is so hard to interfere with their dominance. Because it does unnecessarily involve logic. Logic may serve as an excuse. Using WindowsOS fuels further usage of WindowsOS and other Microsoft related products in the populace - especially among those that seek to find themselves in the right infrastructure, maintaining best environmental touch with their recipients. Whether alternatives can be found, for certain they could, but it might have been too much of work around for too little perk in return. WindowsOS 'is' simply 'the personal computer' in proper shape, while the rest, who knows what that even is, right?

Linux is a biased term, because it comes with a notion of different kind of culture to it, becoming cornered up by aggressive competition, promoting contrary ideals. Statistical majority of consumers rather plays safe, even if it means paying extra to get on the safe cart. If using Linux does not promote a more open software culture, different to the one currently in charge, there is no point in promoting Linux at all or anyhow else 'selling it'. We have enough of products going around, the market is saturated. Linux needs to keep doing what it does and perhaps one day it will be done justice. If not, we must take it as justice.

Focusing on WEB related solutions gives Linux much of the needed advantage, since WEB nullifies the requirement for particular operating system to serve as a necessary context running each given piece of software, save for having a well maintained and popular browser. The era of 'downloading and installing' perhaps comes to an end, WEB grows bigger and soon, it could be irrelevant what local OS manages your machine.

Linux does not have workers, it has followers and this, is a very long lasting investment.
